    I have been keeping up with the slow expansion of the wild North American pheasant range pheasant for almost sixty years. The well groomed well feathered skittish hen pheasant in your photo is definitely a wild bird. If you can, try to protect that hen from road hunters and aerial and ground...

    2022 Trail Cam Pictures

    Great pictures keep them coming. Its like the old saying a picture is worth a thousand words. Three big things I noticed, 1. Wild quail and wild pheasant help each other out. I have noticed this over the years and I think the two species over the Southern Plains have a symbiotic relationship...

    Little ones!

    KansasGsp thanks for the update. That is great news, is that that area that you talked about in a post in Jan. 2016."Best place to get pheasant chicks that may survive in the wild". There is no reason why wild pheasants should not populate every county in Kansas. If wild pheasant can survive and...

    Live nesting pheasant cam

    That is a pretty little healthy hen. When my grand kid come over I will make sure that they see this live stream. Look at all the time and care it take to hatch a wild rooster. Lets hope this hen stays safe with no predators or vermin in the area. Great show Nick

    Grant County pheasants?

    Wheat harvest

    The article below "Kansas Pheasant Outlook and Wheat" is interesting. At the end of the article in the Third Party Comment section, the guy on the ground gives a positive report on what he is seeing on nesting success. http://www.midwesthunt.com/upland/hunting/forecast3.html
