Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 81

Greetings to all of you bird lovers participating in this week's contest.
With this week's #SMaP asking us to show photos of a bird that we have identified,
I have included some pictures of a few Ring necked pheasants.
The scientific name of this beautiful game bird is Phasianus colchicus.

Identifying different kinds of birds isn't my strong suit. I don't have an app to give me a hand identifying all of the different birds I see here in Upstate NY or all of the different birds we see while traveling.
It must have been several years ago that I viewed a post by @broncnutz, an avid sportsman who travels all over the country hunting and fishing. If my memory serves me right, one of his hunting trips took him to Nebraska where he went bird hunting.

Now, hunting may not be for you, but I guarantee that almost all of us has enjoyed eating a few birds, whether it be a chicken or a turkey. A sportsman enjoys providing for himself. Game birds come in all shapes and sizes and on this trip his friends and him had bagged many pheasants.
I knew about this bird but I didn't realize that they were so colorful.

When I looked into this bird a little further I learned that what they had shot was a Ring necked pheasant. This bird was introduced to the continent from eastern Asia. Today, it can be found all across North America.

Never expecting to see a Ring necked pheasant in our area, I was totally shocked when I spotted this beautiful bird in a corn field just down the road a piece. I saw them in January last year and that was also a surprise as the winter was in full swing.

The few pheasants that I spotted were rummaging through the field looking for and kernels that had been left behind after the late summer harvest.

Here is a picture of a female pheasant. This bird I have spotted a few times and as is usually the case its colors allow the bird to blend into its surroundings. Its colors are very different than the colors that the male Ring necked pheasant sports.
