This pheasant was busy trying to find some seeds under the birder feeder now that a few patches of grass are showing after the rain melted some of the snow.

I saw a pheasant in the road ditch and I heard more of them calling in the woods, so there might be be a little bit of spring fever in the air.

These birds found a good feeding spot as a male Ring-necked Pheasant and one of his babies plus a Red-winged Blackbird picked at the fallen seed.

This immature pheasant better hide behind the round hay bale instead of standing on top of it since the hunting season is still open. The ring-necked pheasants are native to China and East Asia, but they have been successfully introduced in other parts of the world, including North America when introduced in 1881. In very bad weather, pheasants are known to stay on a roost for several days without eating so he before fill his tummy before the snow comes.
