Hi Folks,
Saw a cock pheasant on Shady Lane Rd this morning. My
wife and I were taking a car to the shop for minor work
so we were driving separately. When I drove by he was
walking next to the road. I pulled off to make sure
Gayle saw it but turns out that wasn't a problem. Gayle
was about a 45 seconds behind me, and by the time she got
there the pheasant was slowly walking across the road.
She had to come to a complete stop to keep from hitting
him. The pheasant was adjacent to Warfields Pond Park,
where I had seen a hen Ring-necked Pheasant a month ago
(on Dec 3). Now we have a pair. Hope we can find them
during the next Atlas season!
