Ring-necked Pheasant, photo by palofmine2.

The All About Birds page on the Ring-necked Pheasant and Wikipedia’s Common Pheasant entry both note that the pheasant is native to Asia and is one of the most hunted birds in the world. If you’re interested, the Michigan DNR has information about Pheasant season and gamebird preserves.

You can see this photo larger in Renee’s excellent Birds slideshow.
