Geocache Description:


Placed for the 2013 NWOGEO Spring fling poker run. Cache is a plastic container. Bring a pen(cil)


The Ring-necked Pheasant was introduced into North America from Asia and is established over much of the continent, especially in agricultural lands. It is a distinctive and colorful species and is a popular game bird.




Cool Facts:
In very bad weather, pheasants are known to stay on a roost for several days without eating.

Pheasants practice "harem-defense polygyny" where one male keeps other males away from a small group of females during the breeding season.

Across the native range, about 34 races of the species are recognized. The Green Pheasant race is sometimes considered a different species. Multiple introductions of different races have been made in North America
