I was surprised to hear a ring necked pheasant calling from the woods along the cornfield in the Southwest corner at Campbell Flats this morning. I have never heard or seen them in VT. Played cat and mouse with this individual for about half an hour but never got to see him though he called several times. I grew up seeing and hearing them often in Southeastern Pa before the fields were converted to housing developments but have had no sign of them in that part of Pa for many years so it was a welcome sound. Curious if anyone has had a pheasant at Campbell Flats.
