Satyr tragopan (Tragopan satyra) pheasant courtship display in full (60fps)

Satyr tragopan display, this beautiful pheasant is found from India to Bhutan and like all tragopans has an extraordinary courtship display, using a log or visual obstruction between the hen tragopan, the male creeps in and inflates the horns and throat lappet and pumps himself up to suddenly appear over the log to the female who is nearby. These displays are often abandoned if the female is not in the perfect position to view the display and I have observed several tragopan species tapping the log or flicking leaves to attract the female bird’s attention. The video begins with the female Satyr looking over the display log. Display begins at 0.50 seconds. This is a captive male, now in his first adult year (at 2 years old). #tragopan #satyrtragopan #birdkeeping #pheasant #ornamentalpheasant
