Hunting trophy

A mounted hunting pheasant (Phasianus colchicus), male.

Factual description:
• Type: pheasant rooster
• Preparation: wall-mounted specimen (trophy board), mounted in a horizontal orientation
• Posture: laid flat, wings spread to the sides, tail raised upward.
• Feathers:
• Very color-intensive and species-specific
• Neck/head metallic blue-green
• Clearly pronounced red facial patch (eye mask)
• Chest and back copper-orange with black scaling
• Flanks and wings brown-gray mottled
• Tail: long, narrow, brown with dark cross markings (typical of a male pheasant)
• Beak: light-colored, slightly curved, correctly proportioned

Condition/Evaluation:
Species identification is unambiguous. The plumage is well preserved, colors are vivid. The preparation corresponds to classic hunting-trophy work, not museum-grade. The mount is purely decorative, biologically not natural, but common for wall-mounted trophies.
