    This fellow was spotted in Haleakala National Park on Maui at about 8000 feet elevation. Chukars are part of the pheasant family, which are plentiful on Maui, but Chukars are not seen that often. He seemed quite willing to pose for the camera.

    Chukar (Alectoris chukar subsp. chukar) The original birds introduced into the USA was from the nominate subspecies so I assume these birds are too. I was heading to work early one morning and I rounded a curve and spotted a pair of chukars sitting under a hedge. Though I knew it would put me...

    We see very few of these in this part of the U.S. They are pretty cooperative subjects. This one was made some time ago.

    Walking, begging Chukar Partridge

    This is my first gallery photo in quite a while! This adult Chukar was teaching its young how to beg from tourists in autos along the Capitol Gorge in Capitol Reef National Park in Utah. I didn't feed the little beggars, of course, but I took advantage of their boldness to obtain this photo
