Ring-neck Pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) are birds of agricultural areas intermixed with areas of taller vegetation, which they use for cover, and also wetlands. Look for them along rural roadsides, in overgrown or recently harvested fields, and in brushy areas and hedgerows. Pheasants were introduced in Michigan from China in 1895, and the population was the highest in the 1940s and 1950s. Pheasant numbers have been declining as the number of farms and farm fields have decreased, along with the brushy fencerows between fields becoming narrower or disappearing all together.
