banded pheasant... where do I report it?

[jordano]

i shot a banded pheasant this weekend. it was my first pheasant too =)  is there a number I need to call or a website I need to report it to?

[yelp]

Nope..unless you want to send it to Coyote Ridge or Wa Dept. of Corrections..Did it fly into the decoys or what?  You must be hunting next to a release site..

[jordano]

o went down the shore a ways and he was standing there looking at me so I chased him til he flew ha. but ya the band says Coyote Ridge/WSP. what does that mean? but it was at Spanish Castle between Rock Island Dam and Cresent Bar

[bobcat]

It just means the bird was raised at "Coyote Ridge" which is at a prison (I think Walla Walla?)  I think the WSP stands for Washington State Prisons. (but not sure about that either)  Either way, the band just means it's not a wild pheasant. No need to report anything.

ok thank you! sounds good!!!

[twisp_river_slayer]

yeah i shot two of two of those same bands just yesterday near oroville, wa. They are just used to mark the pen raised roosters. Those birds are retarded compared to the wilds ones

Did yah kill him with orange on? 

Them chickens aren't nothin compared to a wily old rooster on the REZ

yep prison birds i call them chickens they are so dum. i used to hunt them when i was little. we have 2 realease sites were we live. now i just take new hunters and young kids out. i can't stand to go hunt them my dogs will catch most of them. i met one of the gaurds that works at the prison while archery elk hunting in rimrock this year. no reporting needed unless you want a pen pal

ha thanks guys  it will definately mix it up a bit     I was really excited!!!

and no kidding these are dumb!!! I was driving down a dirt road that runs along the river just to see if there were ducks along the river and I had an orange vest in my back seat and my gun in my passenger seat with shells out of the gun.... it was standing on the side of the road off by 2 feet and I had time to slam onmy brakes and load my fun and put on my vest.... it moved a whole 3 feet until I got out of the truck then it took of and i chased after it and then it flew cause I got him too close to the river     and blam blam got him  pretty sweet first pheasant story i think       

[Birdguy]

These days any pheasant story that ends with you getting one is a good story . Seems they are a bit tougher to come by this year. Not to many wild ones.
