Our local paper had an article about mass deaths of starlings. Some kind of disease was suspected. Turns out the feed co. Purina makes a poison bait that the farmers are using.
I miss pheasant hunting. We used to be lousy with them years ago. Lotsa good memories of hunts. I used to walk along when I was too young to carry a gun. We raised them a couple years trying to build them back up. They aren't smart enough being cage raised.
I hunted them once when I was a kid. I used to hunt pheasants a lot but we didn't have grouse in our area. I flushed one in a thick bunch of brush I was busting through. My Dad asked me why I hadn't taken a shot. They had neglected to tell me you could shoot hens as well as roosters.
