About Game Birds
The study of American game birds will take you into all parts of the country and into all climates, seasons and kinds of wild land. You will visit the marshes, the fens and the lowland swamps and swales, the upland farms and fields, the broken woods patches and the high remote mountainous areas of our great land.
Various game birds are all over the map and are not difficult to identify, as are the many song birds such as the finches, warblers, sparrows and also birds of prey.
A ruffed grouse, for instance, with his fan tail and peaked head supported by two black ruffs could not be mistaken in his environment for any other game bird.
The ringneck pheasant could not be mistaken for a prairie chicken, even if it were seen on the prairie, nor could the Canada goose be mistaken for any other goose or duck.
There are, however, some difficult challenges for the bird watcher and hunter when it comes to many of the duck species, for they are most often seen under the difficult lights of dawn and dusk, and will often be in dark silhouette against the sun.
Many of the game species of land birds will be seen only in local conditions where they are generally found to feed, nest or migrate. For instance, it would be quite impossible for a ruffed grouse to be found in the Navajo country of Arizona, nor will you find the California Gambel's quail in the northernmost reaches of the state of Maine.
The study of these birds is a fascinating hobby, whether you are a photographer, bird watcher, hunting sportsman or all three. Knowing their habits around the calendar will in great measure make it possible for you to "get their story" over the cyclic pattern of the year, for as the seasons change, so do their habits and habitats.
Many of the species in this book are migratory and therefore subject to protection by the federal government in cooperation with the southern states through which they pass in the fall and the northern states where they go to nest in the spring. In some areas they are seen only during the migration, despite the fact that some individuals see no reason for the trip and so stay the year round in comfortable surroundings, such as city parks, where they will be well fed and protected.

The familiar barnyard gobbler is the same species as the wild turkey. It has merely adapted itself, with the aid of man, to live with the other fowl of the farm rather than stay in woods where it first came from.
Everybody knows what the barnyard turkey looks like, since he is the traditional bird of the Thanksgiving and Christmas table. The early explorers of our country depended upon him for many a main course at the family table.
Yet, this bird in the wild state is perhaps the most tricky and hardest to stalk of any of the game birds of America (due to its shy and alert nature) even though it is a large bird, our largest.
He is a recluse of the dense forests, hardly ever ranging in the open country particularly when men with guns are abroad. In the early days the wild turkey roamed over almost all the land, but the inroads of civilization caused him to retreat until today he is found only in the remotest woods and swamps.
Conservation departments of the various states where where he formerly lived in peace are trying to stage a comeback for him by restocking and protecting him from over hunting and predators. It is a long hard pull against heavy odds.
In New York State, for instance, stocking the woods of the state forests has gradually re-established the bird in several very small areas. Working from farmer stock bred with captured wild birds, a strain has been developed which seems to be holding on.
The southland states of Florida, Georgia and their neighbors have many areas where the wild turkey is still found in great abundance.
