New Zealand pheasants having a meal on the side of the road.





Having a play around in ChatGPT..... with these photos above.
Has anyone else used ChatGPT for this type of thing..... any tips?

Here is the wording that ChatGPT spat out / supplied....

Ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) are a common sight in New Zealand, where they were introduced in the mid-19th century for hunting and sport. These birds have adapted well to the environment, thriving in farmland, grasslands, and roadside areas, as shown in your image. Their striking plumage, particularly in males, makes them easy to identify, with vibrant colors like iridescent green, blue, and red, complemented by a white neck ring.

Although they are not native, pheasants have become an integral part of New Zealand’s rural landscapes, often spotted feeding on seeds, grains, and insects. However, they are primarily appreciated by hunters and bird watchers alike.
