I by Dean L Mitchell Regional Education and Information Manager Anyone who has spent tunc in an alfalfa field during mowing season knows that numerous hen and chick pheasants are unable or unwilling to mixlem harvesting escape machinery In fact wildlife biologists speculate that the loss of hens eggs and chicks during the haying season may exceed the harvest of rixtsters during the fall hunting season Most farmers are upset when they accidentally run pheasants through hay swaihcrs and many pul forth a concerted effort to “slux” pheasants from in front of swalhers However this lakes an immense amount of time and isn't always effective A few simple precautions during hay cutting season may help save pheasants from a death Hen pheasants bring off only one brtxtd per year but arc amaingly determined to do so If her nest is destroyed then hen will continue to renest until her eggs hatch successfully or until she is physically unable to produce eggs Generally if a hen loses chicks that have hatched she will not attempt to rcncst Hens will make from one to four tempts at nesting Because of this from percent of adult hen pheasants hatch their eggs Hen successfully pheasants arc notorious for remaining on the nest even in the face of death from farm implements hen pheasants prefer lush vegetation that is at least inches in height to nest Alfalfa because of its rapid dense growth offers perfect conditions for nesting and provides pheasant brtxxls with an abundance of escape and loafing cover as well as insects mathe Unfortunately turity dale of alfalfa in Utah generally June coincides with the peak of the pheasant hatch Many birds remain in alfalfa fields as contemporary highspeed swalhers begin the harvest Typically farmers begin to mow alfalfa fields from the outside and work in a circle toward the middle of the field This forces hens and chicks to move to the middle of the field to remain in standing cover As a result many birds arc killed during the last few swaths because of their reluctance to run across the freshly mowed open field By mowing alfalfa beginning in the middle of the field and working toward the outer edge pheasants are pushed out of the field into standing cover in adjacent fields and avoid the blades of the swalher Another variation is to begin mowing on one side of the field and working toward the other Pheasants arc pushed out the end of the field instead of being forced to the middle When using these patterns it is a bit more cumbersome to maneuver mowing equipment However the survival rale of pheasants in these fields will generally increase For more information about agricultural practices to benefit wildlife and available contact the nearest Division of Wildlife Resources Office 1994 Page Z Fillmore Freedom Mile Hinckley Town Rodeo Hinckley Town Rixleo will be held July 22 23 Cowboys sign up will be Friday July 15 from 9:(X) am to 12:00 pm at Hinckley town offices Btxiks for local barrel racing will be closing at 8(X) pnt each night Barrel racers must chtxisc between Western States or local and cannot run both Jr calf riding sign up will be held from 600 7:00 pm both nights of the rixlco Age limit will be 6 to 12 25 calf riders will be chosen each night Anyone under the age of 18 must have written parental consent to participate R results The finishers of the 8th Annual Fillmore Freedom Mile held on July 4th arc as follows: Female division champion: Roselcc Gixxlrich Othello WA Male Division champion: Matt Higgs KanoshUT 8 f under: Krishelle Christensen Brooke Anderson Lindsay Kcslcr Kerri Krause Lisa Heward Jimmy len Channing Stott Todd Allen Jace Taylor Steven Kcslcr Rhclt Bailey Nate Stott Jeffrey Shirts Ty Bailey Clayton Barber David Krause 1: JaishaTecplcs Kim Anderson Franny Krause Tiffany Holt Nicole Kcslcr Jannekc Shirts Heidi Heward Jill Bailey Jill ?
