pheasant's
Colorful gamebird's possessive
Pheasant's is the possessive form of pheasant, a large, colorful game bird with a long tail, native to Asia but introduced worldwide for hunting.
The possessive marks ownership or association: the pheasant's plumage, a pheasant's call.
The bird is prized both as quarry and for its striking appearance, especially the male's iridescent feathers.
