Carolina Bird Lore Pheasant or Partridge in Mountain Life
In the Carolina mountains the Ruffed Grouse is called a Pheasant, in the north a Partridge, though true Pheasant and Partridge differ. The brown bird, bantam size, shows beautiful feather markings and a resonant spring drumming. It roosts in trees but sleeps under snow in winter to evade predators. The male may have several mates but often takes little part in rearing.
