Crows, Magpies and Pheasants

by bdog , Posted to Fishing Buddy on 07/05/2011 3:49 PM \| "Quote" \| "Quick Reply" \|
bdog Joined: 06/03/2007 Location: ND	For the last 3 years Crows and Magpies seem to show up on my property about the same time as I see the first hatch of pheasants. They seem to stay about 2 weeks and I don't see them again until the same time next year. Do you think they could be eating the newly hatched pheasants chicks or am I being paranoid? Anyone got any info or noticed anything?

On the list of things a baby pheasant has to watch out for, I think crows & magpies are at the bottom.
