Ive never seen one in the wild, I would say "we dont have them here". Ive lived in 2-4 for 20 or more years.
We have them locally, well... when they get released!
What are you going to use them for?
Cough cough... bouquet...Quote:

Need about 5-8 nice tail feathers if possible.
Most fly shops should have some. Deliced and ready to go.
I've seen a couple at Deer Lake in Burnaby a few years back. My parents claim they are still around. Of course there is no hunting there.
clubs release pheasants have you joined one of these?
Try fly fishing shops, they sell them for tying flies and are pretty cheap. I'm pretty sure Micheals also sells feathers.
I've seen them on the side of highway #99 between ladner trunk road and the #91 interchange on numerous occasions.Quote:

Club birds don't tend to have the best feathers. Fly fishing shop or Michael's.
Find someone that raises them.Quote:

The plumage will be better near end or Season in November. If I can I may be able to help you .
Fuller capes longer feathers preparing for winter compared to beginning of the season. Specially the Rump patch used for tying Caryes
