SOME BEAUTIFUL PHEASANTS. 
As this plate demonstrates, both beauty of form and of plumage distinguish the members of the great family of Pheasants. To this 
group of birds belong the Peacock, the Turkey, the beautiful pheasant of our woods, and many of the breeds of Domestic Fowl: and 
all these, although familiarity has accustomed us to them, are really marvels of Bird Life. The Pheasants in the plate are— 
topmost, the gorgeous male Golden Pheasant; to the left, the Argus Pheasant; in the centre, the Mikado Pheasant; and in the 
foreground, the male Silver Pheasant.
