A pheasant with beautiful iridescent feathers, native to Himalayan forests and shrublands. (a.k.a. the Impeyan pheasant)
Decked out in all the colors of the rainbow, the male is the image of iridescence; green crested head, red neck, green shoulders, blue back, orange tail, and black underparts. When displaying or flushed, flashes a bright white patch on the back. Female is nowhere near as brightly-colored, with a pale blue eye patch, white throat, and streaky brown body. Found in Himalayan hill forest, typically in areas with extensive rhododendron and bamboo-dominated understory.
Species accounts for all the birds of the world.
The national bird of Nepal, Daphne, is a Nepalese word for Himalayan Monal. Danphe is found in the Himalayan region of Nepal and is a sign of peace and beauty.
