Temminck’s Tragopan
**Temminck's Tragopan** (*Tragopan temminckii*) is a striking pheasant species found in the mountainous forests of the eastern Himalayas, particularly in India, Bhutan, and Nepal. Known for its vibrant plumage, the male features a beautiful combination of red, orange, and blue with intricate patterns, along with a prominent blue face patch and wattle. The female is more cryptically colored, allowing her to blend into the forest floor while nesting. Temminck's Tragopan is a ground-dwelling bird, feeding on seeds, fruits, and insects. It is considered a vulnerable species due to habitat loss and hunting pressures.
