== Description ==
[[File:Olsniak himalajski Warsaw.jpg|left|thumb|Himalayan monal, female]]
The Himalayan monal is a relatively large-sized [[pheasant]]. The males of this species look quite different from the females of the species. The male Himalayan monals have bright and colorful [[feather]]s of blue, green, purple, and red. They have a white patch of feathers underneath the base of their [[tail]], but the rest of their underside is black. The males also have a [[Crest (feathers)|crest]] (several feathers) on top of their heads. Both the male and female of the species have blue circles of skin around their eyes. The females and the young birds ([[:wikt:chick|chick]]s) have an overall brown appearance. Their feathers also have white and black strips on certain parts. The females have a white [[throat]].<ref name=whozoo>{{cite web|title=Himalayan Monal|url=http://whozoo.org/Intro2003/AprilStJ/AS_himalayanMonalfinal.html|work=WhoZoo|accessdate=15 June 2013}}</ref>

The male chicks look like the females chicks until a little after a year when they begin to become more colorful. Before then you could tell the young male and females apart because of their larger size and black feathers, instead of white feathers, on the throat.<ref name=whozoo />
