The male is the one with the bright plumage, to attract a mate.
According to the RSPB, there are approximately 7,000 breeding pairs in the UK, so quite a rare bird. As you can probably tell from their name, this species originated in eastern asia, especially around China, Russia and Japan. Due to pollution and hunting though, it is very rare in these countries now unfortunately.
