Mastodawn

Deze patrijs heeft mij laten schrikken door plotseling uit het hoge gras te vliegen. Maar daarna gelukkig wel even poseren voor de foto. 📷 Om er vervolgens snel vandoor te gaan...

Visited again yesterday by our local flock of partridges, but this time on a thin layer of fresh snow

I love that their tracks are like little arrows trailing over the landscape, like on a secret treasure map, but pointing backward… to confuse the predators?

A ball of #crestedPartridge perching for the night at the #GrusonGewächshäuser, where they roam freely in some of the greenhouses. It almost made me jump and scream, when I was standing right next to it and heard some rustling in the greenery. I did NOT expect a chonky demon bird almost at eye level, just centimetres away. 😅

Here's how they look in daylight: https://pixelfed.social/p/meoralis/889604144093266659

Some more variations on this pattern. Tied in hand with silk thread and vintage silk button twist. The hackle is partridge. The underwing is rooster. The upper wing is guinea fowl.

This is the only time of year that I get to use this kind of fly, and the fishing has been disappointing. 😢
