Mike-I am wondering where you are? Also has anyone out there seen any young pheasants. So far this year I have seen none, which on normal years is very unusual, but then again this was not a normal year weather-wise with all the rain.

We saw a very reduced number of hen pheasants early this spring, but have not seen but one hen in the last two months. In my field work I usually come upon at least a couple of nests, but so far that too has not happened.

We have been flushing a single Gray Partridge from time to time this summer as we walk in the morning. I recently flushed some young birds that but I was not sure if they were Pheasants or Partridge because they were so small. Today I got confirmation when I saw both adult and young Partridge.
