Pheasants are native to Asia. But following introductions many centuries ago these large gamebirds have now established themselves as part of the rich fauna of the British landscape. Millions of pheasants are reared each year on estates and the familiar sound of a pheasant calling at dusk can connect us to another ancient world. Much rarer is the golden pheasant which while also introduced, is a difficult bird to see, as we'll hear in this extended version of Tweet of the Day featuring, Chris Packham, wildlife cameraman John Aitcheson and sound recordist Gary Moore.
