Lot Essay

"The diminutive Indian red Jungle fowl is one of the World's most beautiful birds. Yet it is underrated because of an association with its domestic descendant-the humble chicken. It is rarely glimpsed in its native habitat in the riverine forest and the jungle's edge in northern India and Nepal."
