But they increase very rapidly in number, asingle pair having been known to produce as many as 183 eggs in aseason. The sportsman, however, takes care to keep their numbers withindue limits. Their habit of squatting or sitting so close to the earth, has been supposed to be an instinctive act to save themselves from theattacks of the hawk, who is unable to master his prey, if large andstrong, near the ground, where it could offer resistance. I have metwith a story of a pheasant which proves that... this bird is very bold andcourageous. "A young lady walking alone a few miles from Stirling (inScotland), observed a beautiful cock pheasant perched on a stone by theroad side. Instead of showing timidity at her approach, he flew downupon her, and, with spurs and beak, began a furious assault. Beingclosely pursued, and seeing no way of escape from the enraged bird, sheadopted the only alternative that was left, namely, of seizing heradversary, whom she carried home, but soon afterwards released; on thedoor being opened, however, he went out without any sign of fear, and, with a deliberate step, paced backwards and forwards in front of thehouse, and manifested an inclination to join the fowls in the poultryyard.
