This bird was mortally wounded but not retrieved.
Competition for cover, nesting ground and food is fierce. Some birds end up on the road.

Especially because, as here, the shoot operators leave out feed for them
The feed is in the two green-capped units behind the road pylon and the road is in the foreground, immediately in front of the pylon.
The birds associate the road with food. They have yet to learn how dangerous traffic is. This female pheasant found out too late.
