peihana
1. (loan) (noun) pheasant, Phasianus colchicus - an introduced game bird that has a very long tail.
He pai anō te whakawhata i te peihana me ērā atu manu, i mua o te kōhuatanga, engari kaua e tukua kia pirau (TP 12/1907:4). / It's also good to hang pheasants and those sorts of birds before boiling them, but don't let them go rotten.
