Blyth's tragopan  (Tragopan blythii)

This brilliantly-coloured pheasant is the largest of all tragopans (4), and is easily recognised by its bright yellow bare facial skin, rusty-red head, neck and breast, and smoky-grey lower breast and belly (5). The back and rest of the body is brownish red, densely spotted with small white dots (4). A distinctive black band extends from the base of the bill to the crown and another black band extends behind the eye. Like other tragopans, males have two pale-blue fleshy ‘horns' that become erect during courtship, and a brilliantly coloured, inflatable lappet that hangs from the throat. The lappet is yellow bordered with blue, and like the horns, can be expanded and exposed during courtship display. (6). Females are dark brown with a mixture of black, buff and white mottling (4).
