Talk about Snow! Even though them pheasants can walk on top,,I'll bet they're having a tuff time finding cover and food. I can't imagine having to plow those trails...and then hopeing that they stay open and don't blow shut..which I'm sure they do. Thanks for the pictures...


4 years ago when we had our record 80+ inches of snow up here- I'd go to the bakery and they'd give away all their old bread for you to throw out for the pheasants and the grouse...After I fed cows I'd throw a bunch out in the brushy areas for the birds-- but those old cows used to like the bread too....

The pic of the snowdrift is of a 4 wheel loader from a cell phone. The pic of the building is the school in Springfield Colo.
The pheasants are astounding, they will stand on one leg then the other. Now they come up to the road where the highway is bladed down to the dirt, Very few get hit, now the jackrabbits are a different story. Probably see over a dozen per mile hit on the road. My son counted 79 pheasants in a 3 mile stretch. I have thrown out a little grain for them now and then.
The county is starting to widen some roads past one lane now.
And to think some people play in that white stuff.
