Ask any British birdwatcher to name their least favourite birds and the chances are high that the Common Pheasant, Phasianus colchicus, will top the list. Here in Britain we never use the affix Ring-necked, as many of our Pheasants don’t have rings on their necks, but I am talking about the same bird that is known as the Ring-necked Pheasant in America.

Serious birders may have an obsessive interest in birds, but as we all know one thing they don’t like are birds which, they believe, aren’t properly wild. Here in the UK it’s taken a long time for the purists to get used to Red Kites, which are now common and widespread throughout much of the country. They are nearly all descended from birds that were released initially over 30 years ago.

I have a strong suspicion that the person who named the Collared Laughingthrush only had a black-and-white photo available when deciding on the name. Otherwise, why focus on the (not even very distinctive) collar in such a colorful bird?

The Mediterranean island of Mallorca is one of those places where birding and non-birding hobbies can be combined with wonderful convenience. This is rather important to me when traveling with friends, as being able to record some interesting species without too much effort and still maximising the time I can share doing non-birding activities is tricky in places with low avian diversity.
