Description
Driving through Buena Vista County, Iowa last week, I couldn’t believe my eyes! Right there not far from the road were at least 50-80 pheasants, in a harvested corn field. I almost went off the road to see such a sight! I turned the first gravel road east of the one I was traveling on and pulled off the road. There were a few close enough to me that I was able to get a few photos taken. What a wonderful treat to see so many at one time. Roosters and hens together foraging through the harvested corn field covered with a few inches of snow. This one hen was sitting on the fringe of the group on her own. The Fine Art America watermark will not appear on your purchase. Ideal for your office or home. You can choose from a fine art canvas print, pillow, greeting cards, puzzles, and many other home decor products are available.

Beautiful winter photograph of a Pheasant resting on the snow in a harvested corn field with great pose, camouflaged appearance, and composition, Kathy! One is great, but over 50 on the field is amazing! F/L
Kathy M Krause replied:
Morris, thank you so much for you encouraging comment and F/L. I really value your support! Yes, I always think about that day and wished most of them would have been closer together. It was an amazing see all those pheasants in a small field eating the corn in the field after they harvested the corn.

So wonderful, glad to hear they may be making a return. Here in Pa. I used to startle some up almost every time I rode out, over 30 years ago. Now I never see them. The only ones still alive here seem to be in gaming, hunting and shooting facilities. Sad!
Kathy M Krause replied:
