Romantic cottages for two in the Peak District
This is the second year since we came here that we have the pleasure of a pheasant brood in the garden. We are not sure where she was nesting but today I found mum and 10 baby chicks near the bird feeders. I managed to get to her before Izzy did so she survived and inquisitive attack from the dog. One of the chicks did not do so well with a crow who had an extra special dinner. Mum pheasant has since moved the chicks across the garden and was last seen nestling under the hedge. I watched her move them to make sure that greedy crow did not get another one. I have heard that pheasants are good mums so not sure if any will survive. Lets hope they do
