Text Appearing Before Image:
nestsby a fallen tree. there are great difficulties in the wayof breeding it in sufficient numbers,and one feels a natural repugnance tothe killing of so beautiful a birdfor the sake of eating it. Themagnificent colors belong only to themale, the female being reddish brown,spotted and marked with a darker hue.The tail of the female is short. Thestatement is made, Uowever, that somehens kept for six years by Lady Essexgradually assumed an attire like thatof the males. Fly-fishers highly esteem the crestand feathers on the back of the neckof the male, as many of the artificialbaits owe their chief beauty to theGolden Pheasant. According to Latham, it is calledby the Chinese Keuki, or Keukee, aword which means gold flower fowl. A merry welcome to thee, glittering bird !Lover of summer flowers and sunny things !A night hath passed since my young buds have heard The music of thy rainbow-colored wings—Wings that flash spangles out whereer they quiver,Like sunlight rushing oer a river. 12
Text Appearing After Image:
