Subject: [MDBirding] Ring-necked Pheasant in Charles


Folks

On Friday, January 11 while looking for Snow Geese in Charles County I came upon a male Ring-necked Pheasant at the intersection of River Road and Sankston Rd. on Cobb Neck. River Road is off Wicomico Beach Road, off of Rock Point Road (Rt. 257). Probably not a list able bird, but still fun to find. The bird did appear to be wild based on behavior, but who knows.

The location of the image I got is: http://www.jbchurchill.com/public_gallery/gallery2/gmjett/main.php?g2_itemId=4950. If you go to my website you can also see about 100 bird images I have posted from my recent trip to Gambia/Senegal. This folder is a work in progress, and I still have lots to post as time permits. The Africa stuff is on the second page of site.

No Snow Geese were found as reported by a local birder along Mt. Victoria Road. They could still be around, and checking the turf farm at the end of Morgantown Rd. is another place to check.

Cheers

George
