September 15, 2023, Pheasant Mosaic Sculpture

The attractive pheasant was introduced to Europe from Asia for hunting. It loves our local countryside, and eats a wide range of food including grain, worms, spiders and green shoots. It nests on the ground among thick vegetation laying 6-15 eggs which hatch after 23 days. The mosaic jokingly pairs the pheasant with its arch-enemy the fox in a permanent pas-de-deux.

The "new bridge" of Newbridge is actually a 13th century bridge. It has its own Wikipedia entry, being the oldest or 2nd oldest bridge across the Thames. You have a choice of pub/restaurants beside the bridge from which to admire the river: the Maybush on the southern bank and the Rose Revived on the northern bank.
