Hi all,
I found this pheasant right beside the road - I think he got hit by a car, he was not walking properly but then he flew away!

1D3 with 100-400 & 1.4 CT

Thanks for checking!

Elfie

Thanks everybody!
About the angle - since it was so close to a busy road, I turned the car around and drove past the bird and then got out and took a shot. Next thing - he was gone...
