[AT] Feeding Pheasants

[SEITHR at denison.edu]

I read an interesting article a while back (from Minnesota Cooperative 
Extension Service? somebody like that) that said most of the pheasants in the 
US today are hybrids from the many attempts to introduce the birds in the 19th 
century. No single introduction seemed to be a smash success, but the 
surviving birds managed to get together and interbreed. So what we have as 
ringnecks here in this country are different from what you'll find anywhere 
else.

Or so the article said.

All I know for sure is that the pheasants we have in northeast Ohio are wily 
birds who can be hunted in fields of standing corn. They are sneaky and 
DELICIOUS.
