You will love it!!
Carl Linnaeus gave the great argus its specific name (from which its common name and genus name are derived) because of the intricate eye-like patterns on its wings, in reference to Argus, a hundred-eyed giant in Greek mythology. There are two subspecies recognized: Nominate argus of the Malay peninsula and Sumatra, and A. a. grayi of Borneo. William Beebe considered the two races to be distinct species, but they have since been lumped.
The great argus is a brown-plumaged pheasant with a blue head and neck, rufous red upper breast, black hair-like feathers on the crown and nape, and red legs. The male is one of the largest of all pheasants, measuring 160-200 cm (63-79 in) in total length, including a tail of 105-143 cm (41-56 in), and weighing 2.04-2.72 kg (4.5-6.0 lb).[5] Males have very long tail feathers and huge, broad and greatly elongated secondary wing feathers decorated with large eyespots. Young males develop their adult plumage in their third year.[6] Females are smaller and duller than males, with shorter tails and fewer eyespots. They measure 72-76 cm (28-30 in) in total length, including a tail of 30-36 cm (12-14 in), and weighs 1.59-1.7 kg (3.5-3.7 lb).[5]

“She already has two babies. I don’t know what he’s doing. You’ve already done your duty!” Mr. Pheasant is keeping the romance alive. No matter how long you’ve been together or how many kids you have, it’s always the right time to dress up in your finest feathers and go on a hot date!
THANK YOU!!!
What a gentleman 😂
Damn, he's already better than 90% of men
women nowadays often don't get it
once they marry, all romance is dead, all fun is dead, life becomes a chore
women just sound tired of mating
Man I wish I had a mating dance that made me look like a biblically accurate angel.

@@bluefootwalking WTF 😂
This is a lot cuter when you hear the “she’s already had 2 babies with him idk what he’s doing” he’s just embarrassing his pheasant wifey in public
Bird PDA.
I'm pretty sure pheasants do not mate for life, though
awwwww
@@strawberry-rl6oy but aren't they like, just the only two there? idk
@@Thebookshiba we don't know how big the place is, it seems like a reserve. There's probably many more.
Poor bird, got rejected in front of a crowd, and now humiliated all over the internet
Even birds get rejected.
😢
😢😟😦
But it stills looks amazing with those feathers, I mean, wow
F
Every time he flashes his feathers, I can’t help but to say, “BEHOLD”.
😭😭😭 man how does this only have 90 likes in 3 years wtf man!? I heard Jafar in my head!
Died of cringe

The humans were more interested than the female bird lol
🤣🤣🤣👍
😂😂
No
@Salih Baba well duh. She already has a baby so food is the only thing important for then now lol
@Salih Baba ok you know more about female birds than I ever would. 👏 have a good day sir or ma'am.
She was like "I'm not doing this in front of the humans, Lucas🙄"
Nahi, I would like to dance like this for you.
Lol. When I think of these bird names, "Lucas!"
🤣😭🤣💀
That's Lucas' kink
_Bird-yeurism!_
I sometimes ask myself "Did dinosaurs do this kind of dance too?" and then I imagine a Tyrannosaurus trying to do these sick moves.
Also, I like his tail
I imagine T-Rex danced like a male ostrich!
Imagine a T-rex T-posin

Ahaha love 😂 nice joke
Male Pheasant: Feast your eyes on this man candy
Female Pheasant: *I have a husband and two kids*
Male Pheasant: I-
XD
Male pheasant: bitch did I stutter?
the husband and 2 kids part is actually canon just turn on captions you'll see
He is the husband
Thanks for the laugh 😂🤣
Lol the Wife at the end like "I want you to do that kind of dance for me" and the guy's like "OoOkaY"
This always makes me smile, it's like if a dude came up to me, opened up an umbrella in my face and called it foreplay!

I love the fact that he's like "TA-DAAH"

And 1:30 "He's like: come back!"
Kids are very harami these days 😂

R r r rejected
Like a boss 😎
I love aviaries. Being mere inches from numerous exotic birds that almost don't mind your presence is magical.
It's spelled "ovaries" dumbo.
Oh, definitely. One of my favorite memories of the aviary in our town's children's zoo is kneeling down to get some pictures of one of the birds, and then feeling a little tapping on my knee and looking up to find a curious argus pheasant hen investigating me and my backpack.
beautiful display no doubt, handled the rejection like a gentle-pheasant for sure🤘🏻
What a beautiful bird! And to actually be able to see it do its mating dance right in front of everyone is amazing!
Hi Jessica. How's it been? Take care. From Tucson...lol
Їх
Just proof that you lose control over your actions when mating is on the mind
i think he gets paid to do that
I'm guessing these birds don't have too many predators in their region, so are generally more trusting of intrusive hairless apes lol
I've heard the Dodo was also pretty friendly, because of its isolation, so the dumbass sailors ate every last one of em while calling them stupid 🙄
"Fine! I'll just go show off my beautiful plumage to THESE people! At least somebody appreciates my beauty!"

1:15 "Typical Male"
Best comment lol
Idk how u even heard that lmao
cz he has the duty to pass on the gene...unlike the females just showing their butts...😑😆
End of the movie title...2:11
" I want you to do that kind of dance for me" lol 😁
"OKAYYYYYYY" 😁😁😁
1:00
*"U think she is interested".*
“She already has 2 babies. I don’t know what your trying to do buddy”
His tail looks like a zipper.
Also, a very beautiful dance, even if the poor guy got rejected.
That female peacock is more loyal than most of the ppl today 😅😂
01:28 No, Ron... Go find Becky

Nice Pfp!
omg this is almost surreal! I can't believe such amazing creatures exist! It was truly beautiful to watch
+Music Is Life Evolution***
That's the evolutionary product of entitled female hypergamy. Our species is heading in that direction.
The way she walked off into the bushes 😂😂😂
I feel like it's a good thing he got rejected, with all those kids around.
U are gross
@Suraj Kumar animals mating is different from human sex if you wanna sexual that for kids you are a gross old man/woman
@Suraj Kumar that’s true, pay no attention to the troll
@Suraj Kumar
You’re right !

The courtship dance.. I love it.. so cute.. 🥰
This bird shows more effort than some of the guys i have been out with.
i love how the humans are more impressed by him than the other bird is. then again i suppose she probably sees this every day lmao
Imagine if this was a human thing. Guys posing and dancing with flashy clothing and shit all of a sudden when an attractive female comes close to them. Would be far more entertaining than cat calling, for the observers and the female herself.
Larkspur We'd be arrested in no time for harassment :V
Larkspur No, imagine a guy posing like this with weird giant flesh wings instead.
only if a man could be any better then that bird. That bird is the most beautiful man I have ever seen.
This is already a thing. We call those guys douchebags.
Larkspur It would still be creepy
Pheasant be like:
“ I will corner you into the bush . You must mate me or you can be cornered forever “
Poor boi got rejected, but at least he accepted it! That dance was majestic though, and people's comments in the background were funny af
I’m surprised nobody yelled out *”GET A ROOM”* lol
Such a beautiful and unique bird thank you mother nature
He's just so pouty. Also from the front the flare up looks like the dinosaur form Jurassic Park.
dilophosaurus!
+Feathers The Raptor yep
I love how fluent his feathers move, very majestic
I finally found the video of the mysterious new pheasant while watching beautiful animal videos. I am a huge bird-lover and I was looking for this bird for a long time. Now I found it thanks! 😌😍
I like how the tail goes up and down so SMOOTH O.o
What an incredibly beautiful bird. Sublime.
this is like those 'public proposal' in sport games🤣
she was like "boy byee"
1:10 *Look at me, I can become a cup*
🤩🥰😍
Lmfao 🤣
I can't-
NOTICE ME SENPAI
Al rasAl ebus
Yo
Okay. My ladyy todd i am senpaiii as welll
What a beautiful creature! Thank you very much for this sharing.
Argus pheasant: lifts feathers
Male peacock: hey. That's my thing!
It's like flash mob interpretive dance! Wonderful!
Lol i just love how the birds dont care that the people are watching
I like how it all start from long tail turkey into a biblical accurate angel
The male bird moves like a ballerina! Wish I could be half as graceful! Lol
Male bird....ooohhh I'm falling in love with you...
Female bird- get lost
😂😂😂😂😂
The John Travolta of the bird world!
The way he stalks around in that feather-cloak he reminds me of Batman. "I am vengeance..I am the night...I am...=foomp= HORNY!!"
Amelia Bee It`s funny how in the bird/animal/fish world the males do all the courting work,it used to be the same in the human world but that has all changed lol...
Jim Bennett Not always, there are lots of animal species that are purely matriarchal. There's even one lizard species that has only females, no dudes at all! Nature can be so weird. I love it.
Amelia Bee True,I used to breed bearded dragons and I knew of one species of lizard where the females didn`t need a male to mate with for reproduction,I think it was some kind of whiptail.I also love nature and currently breed tropical fish.The reason I got onto this video was because I do a lot of fly tying and a pattern I want to tie calls for argus feathers and wanted to see one actually displaying..
I've always seen pheasants as the Glenn Quagmires or Johnny Bravos of the bird world myself.
Beautifull
Beautiful birds. Never saw it before
Excelente video de cortejo, para mi uno de los mas espectaculares del mundo de las aves.Good video congratulations
The trick is simple: spread your plumage so much that your girlfriend won't be able to see another male. That apart, what a beautiful bird it is.
He just got dumped infront of everyone😂 ouch😂
Story of my life.
That's a real man, he took the rejection.😕
This is probably the equivalent of a guy holding out flowers for his crush and she says to him "thanks but I'm taken."
Everyone's taking about the birds, but those were some wholesome humans 💕
When guy tries to hit on you at the bar😭😂
The bird having an audience during this whole thing reminds me a whole lot about those people who propose in the middle of a mall lol
The female was like "not now, the spectators are snapping shots!"
Male: it's because you look so lovely when you're mesmerized 😁
What a beautiful bird!
Then change your profile.
those bird are magical 😍
The first that came out of my mouth when i saw it was WOW!!!
Amazing looking bird!.
The guy in the background saying “I did… That’s the dance I did for you” 😂
Lol the female gave the humans more attention than to the male. Rip male.
"Be careful, it's mating so it's protective right now" **rolls baby in stroller right behind it** Sounds about white.
Fantastic video.
He looks very graceful😍😍
I honestly think the humans ruined the mood for her, cause how can someone reject this
That’s what I was thinking also, these folks were literally gonna stand there with their kids and watch them make babies that’s super weird 🥴
female. Bird : just walking around.
Male. Peacock: hello my ladyyy
Female. Bird : are u trying to get my attention.
Male peacock.: loook at me and my beautiful. Featherss pleaseee
Female bird: gotta go byeee
Male peacock.: i. Am sad
Female.: i am sorryy
Max girl intelligennt
Lovely .
"Will you marry me?"
"No"
"Understandable. Have a good day"
those people's comments were hilarious!!
give them some privacy, will you?
Since when do animals care about privacy during sex? They'll do it out in the open about 90% of the time. I remember encountering a pair of lizards doing it on a sidewalk in Florida, and I believe the same year I saw a couple of mourning doves doing it right in front of a pool full of people.
Some are very picky about it. Animals display extremely varied sexual rituals and habits
Fair enough.
At the very least, male pheasants seem like the types of birds who wouldn't care who sees them showing off their plumage.
pretty sure Fran was being sarcastic or jokeful.
Amazing Pictures 👍
Very beautiful and wonderful sound
She’s like, “Umm, no. It’s not working. Hard pass.”
Clearly she wasn’t interested 🤷🏽♀️😂👌🏽
Wow, this bird so beautiful.
I really love this birds
He looks like a freaking raptor.. I love fluffy birds so much they reminds me of Dinosaurs :-:
This is the bird definition of a flasher in a trench coat
that's so beautiful! 💖💎
"I'm a show-er and a grow-er."

Jhjghtt no
Relax douche, humans have a right to their own space too, just like any creature on this Earth.
