Here's a shot from our recent trip to Thailand.  This is full frame and was taken from a blind near Keang Krachan National Park, I wish I had brought my 300F4 as the pheasants were often a little too close for the 500F4, I managed to squeeze this female in.

A fine pheasant, Nate. Great pattern in the plumage.
