Partridge.

Very tasty, challenging little blighter to shoot. Often in a small group (covey).

Currently out of season for shooting.

I can explain it to you...

At first I thought it was a Hen Pheasant but the tail was too short.

Have to say it was amusing watching it stand up against the two Magpies!  :D

I saw a whole family of them in town earlier. I'm not sure if they had red legs though.

Okay by me John, as you probably already know I haven't a problem with threads going off topic!  ;)
