Fair shooting awaits Willamette
Talley pheasant hunters when the
season opens this noon, but the
first half of the season on ducks
and geese will be poor here, the
state game commission said this
week.
The season In this area on
' pheasants and waterfowl opens
today. The cease fire order for
pheasants is October 26 and the
bag limit is two cocks per day and
not more than six during the en
tire season or in possession.
Seasons Vary
Other areas in the state liave
different seasons and bag iimits.
The aeason oh ducks, geese, brant
and coots is from October .21 to
-November 9 inclusive and again
from noon on December 19 to Jan
uary 7, Inclusive. The bag limit
la five ducks per day (including
not more than one wood duck)
and six geese (provided at least
four are snow geese).
" When the game commission says
pheasant shooting is "fair" in the
Willamette valley it is compar
ing the shooting here with the rest
ofrhe state. Compared' with past
years the shooting here this year
will be good. , . .
Birds Declining
The first Chinese pheasant was
successfully introduced 16 the
United States in 1881 in Oregon.
They were protected for 10 years
and about a half million were
killed in the first open season.
vJSince then maintaining a phea
sant population has been nip and
tuck with the number of birds
Slowly declining. Most of the de
crease in pheasants, says the com
mission, is due to the breaking
up of larger farms, expansion of
cultivated areas and "clean farm
ing" practices which destroys
much of the natural cover. .
The commission operates a
number of bird farms ene each
at Corvallis and Eugene. About
0,000 to 90,000 birds are liberat
ed each year from these farms.
Aids in Maintenance
"ThiS," said commission mem
ber, is only a slight aid to
maintaining the pheasant popula
tion." A recent innovation is the field
rearing projects. In this program
the state buys a strip of standing
grain from a farmer. The grain is
left standing and pheasant hens
and day-old chicks are placed
there in coops and left to scatter
Into the wilderness at their own
choosing.
This system, now In its third
year, has proven quite success
ful, the commission said. Five such
projects were launched recently in
this area.
The key to the pheasant popu
lation is the pheasant hen, a brown
colored fowl slightly smaller than
the beautifully plumed male bird.
.When a hen is killed 10 potential
pheasants, which the hen would
normally produce, are also crossed
Off. .
Hens Protected
Pheasants are polygamous. One
cock and 10 hens will produce
100 birds, but' 10 cocks and only
one hen will produce only 10
birds. Cocks can be harvested
yearly under controls and the
overall pheasant population is not
reduced, the commission said.
The commission has launched a
stiff campaign against the killing
of hen pheasants. Last year sports
men responded and the results
were favorable. In one county
two years ago, however, 75 pet
cent of the pheasants were killed
. In one season and half were hens.
In the Willamette valley last
year, when the season was opened
I after being closed for several
yearshunting was light and the
kill 'moderate.,
811f ht Increase Noted
A check has shown that the
pheasant I population in Marion,
Polk and other Willamette valley
counties has slightly increased
since 1945. The highest concentra
tion of pheasants in this area is in
Benton county, said the commis
sion. The season in this area on val
ley quail is closed this year. This
frail bird, better adapted to south
ern climates, has just gone
through a series of rugged winters
which set the population back in
some areas, the commission said.
Duck hunting in western Ore
gon will not be good for. the next
several weeks, the commission
said. The Willamette flyway is
usually not full of the migrating
waterfowl until later.
Preserve Established
One of the main reasons for the
split waterfowl season, said the
commission, is to give eastern and
western sections of Oregon equal
opportunity at -duck shooting. The,
first half is good in eastern Ore-'
gon.
But later in December, that por
tion of the state freezes over, the

ducks and gees leave and then
western Oregon gets a chance in
the second half of the season. .
The duck and goose populations1
in the Willamette valley are ex
pected to be helped by the recent-'
ly-established 8,000 - acre game
preserve at $auvie; island near;
Portland. Limited shooting will be
permitted there this year.
