Flying visit from a pheasant

This unusual visitor recently paid a flying visit to a suburban garden in south east Belfast.
A spokesperson for the RSPB said it is not that uncommon to see pheasants in the city, but added: "While perhaps not a common garden visitor, they have been spotted stopping along their route for a snack or if they have been startled by a noise which could drive them away from their usual area. If it was just a flying visit, then likely they just stopped on their route."
