A photographer who was holidaying in Scotland for the summer to visit family has managed to capture some spectacular shots of a very rare bird near Loch Ness.
Kirsty Lloyd, who currently lives in South Wales, explained that while on the trip she was out looking to take pictures of the local wildlife as part of her hobby when they came across the beautiful creature by the side of the road.
She explained: "We spotted the golden pheasant next to the roadside in woodland in Drumnadrochit while we were out on the 30th of August.
