4/18/09 Ring-necked Pheasant -Roan Mountain

Almost forgot to post this.
Ron Carrico spotted a Ring-necked Pheasant on the right side of hwy 143 (in the grass ditch) in the town on Roan Mountain just passed the medical center. He called me on my way up and I saw it about 30 minutes later. When spooked, it ran up the hill and into the woods. Beautiful male bird.
Ring-necked Pheasant - probably a escaped bird - Hwy 143, Roan Mountain, across from the old Cloudland Elementary School. N 36 11' 32.4", W 82 04' 18.5" elev ~2650'.
