Word of caution: Kansas Wildlife Biologists are not known for their math skills and like most law enforcement types they would rather ride around and eat donuts than get into the rough stuff. If you want to know how the birds are ask the farmers in the area. They are on the land every day.

RMC, No fiction there...It is what it was...RE: Kansas Pheasants. Most of the state ,especially South of I 70 will be poor hunting, due to the drought. Here in NW Kansas, I think this will be one of the best years we have ever had. Mild winter last year, higher than average spring rains, late wheat harvest all combined to produce a lot of birds. I am the Economic Development guy for the area and on my way to town a couple of days/week I see LOTS of Birds. Unfortunatly, last year was good as well and the invasion of hunters, has created a lot more posted ground. So unless arrangements ( I dont mean money changing hands) have been made in advance, its going to be tough to find a place to hunt. Southwest Nebraska shares the same good fortune in terms of birds as we do. I see many flocks of Prairie Chickens as well, a great sight, since we had so few for so long.Kansas does do a great job of providing lots of Walk in access so that will help the guys who just show up...I'll hit Nebraska again on Monday afternoon, and hunt the guys place we get hay from...He is not a Democrat...

Wonderful story!
Brings back memories of Hunting around Indianola, NE, not far from Binkleman. Great People there, and used to be (maybe still are) birds.
George Cornwell and I had a lot of good times.
George is gone now, but the warm memories remain.

Needless to say the bird's were Democrats also hence there proximity to the "feed lot" and "loafing shed".

Now Chuckie, you take care of them redbirds till we git thar next month. (One of the best reads on the BBS in a LONG time!)
