The Lady Amherst’s Pheasant, Chrysolophus amherstiae, is family Phasianidae.
These are native to south western China and Myanmar
The adult male is 100-120 cm in length, its tail accounting for 80 cm of the total length. It is unmistakable with its black and silver head, long grey tail and rump, and red, blue, white and yellow body plumage. The "cape" can be raised in display.
This species is closely related to the Golden Pheasant and the introduced populations in England will interbreed.

I live in Upstate too!
I have raised chicks and ducks, I live on a farm. Yes, you do need a coop. And I say monitor them at the river for awhile, and make sure they get used to coming back. Then you can just let them go freely. But it is across the street, and they could get hit. So I say to watch them whenever they’re at the stream. I honestly think you’re better off not getting ducks, maybe chickens.
