Glory in the Morning

Here in northern Cache Valley, we are experiencing what is called an inversion - we seldom have it as bad as Logan, Smithfield, and Richmond, but it can be very unpleasant. We had some foggy situations this morning, but as the sun was coming up, the fog dissipated. It was as though the sky was divided, with the light from the sun shooting straight up, with a division between the radiating light and the northern sky.

Name that bird

Our resident pheasant really deserves a name. He refused to pose for me, but the sun was hitting him just right so that you could see the red around his eye and the iridescent green of his head. When he comes to visit, he is intent on stuffing his craw as quickly as possible. No nonsense for this bird. Anyone care to give him a name?
