Do pheasants make a lot of noise?

There are quite a few ring-necks here, plenty of corn to feed on. I hope to shoot a couple more before the end of the season (1.5 weeks)
Now, a golden pheasant? I'm gonna have to google that. Are they a game bird as well?

What I think you're trying to say is that they're migrants, spreading aggressively.... right?
Lol, no way. I guess you've never heard of invasive species as in species that invaded another country? Those birds were in introduce here from China i believe.

I think it depends on the State. Here in NY they are under the same classification as Ring-Neck (Game Bird).

Actually invasive applies to species which are introduced from another country and than begin to take over, displacing native species. Ring Necks are not an invasive species any where in the U.S. you are correct however in that they are an "introduced" species from China. Here in Wyoming they are raised by the Game and Fish in Bird Farms and released each spring because they cannot generally survive the rigors and hazards of our winters.
BTW Coral Keeper, Ring Necks are also pretty noisy.
