The Ring Necked Pheasant by Amy E. Fraser is a painting of a gorgeous male pheasant gazing proudly at the viewer from within a stunning hillside meadow landscape featuring a clear blue sky, a big bright yellow sun and a festive display of colorful wildflowers. Pheasants spend almost their entire life on the ground, rarely ever being seen in trees. Pheasants are able to fly fast for short distances, but they prefer to run.
