It seems the lost of pheasant habitat went from east to west as what I read on this excellent site. I grew up in the lehigh valley section of east central Pa. In the late sixties and seventies there was plently of native and stocked birds. Now it"s mostly put and take but I still enjoyit with my new two year old brit. Between the state stocked birds and birds stocked by the clubs I belong to I still had a nice fall bird season. I guess you have to take the oppurtunities given. Unfortunetly we had to put my other Brit of 14 years down 3 weeks ago, He was a great dog and will be sorely missed. Thanks to all members and associates.
