Rothschild's Peacock Pheasant
The Mountain Peacock Pheasant is the highest ranging member in this family and also the largest. It's chosen haunts are the humid, dark ravines of the higher mountains. The male's display is impressive, he makes a dramatic appearance from behind a shrub - and yet the hen seems to ignore the whole performance.

Tying with Rothschild's Peacock Pheasant Feathers
A rare bird up until recently. Captive bred birds are now available to the tier and crafter.
Artistic fly tiers and craftspeople can find many of the same uses as the other peacock pheasants.
With it’s dark brown plumage and blue-green eyes striking effects can be achieved. Jewlery and dream catchers are but a few things where these beautiful feathers can be used. As with any of the peacock pheasants, great butterfly patterns can be made by creative thinkers.
The center tail feather on the males don't have eyes, they are similar in color to the pair of tail coverts in the picture on the right. However, the side-tails make up for that and as you can see in the picture here, the eye pattern is quite large.
