During winter we give pheasants breakfast, a bit of soaked whole barley. They stop coming in spring.
They must have a decent memory, because in autumn one turned up asking for breakfast.
We only have 4 regulars this year, I think there were 9 last year, but it's been mild, had 6 when there was snow about.
I think the females have cute faces, they make funny little squeaky noises when asking for food

Cock pheasants here are all called Gilbert and the females are Fenella.  We currently have only one Gilbert, who's a very rowdy chap, and three Fenellas.  There were two Gilberts but one was killed on the road.  Just about all the chicks get squashed  .
They do make lovely little noises when they are chatting amongst themselves.  Very nice to have about.
