As part of our Bird Dogs For Habitat campaign, we want to highlight a few of our favorite bird dog breeds and we’re starting off with flushers. Ranging from a 25-pound English cocker to a 90-pound lab, these close working, natural retrievers have a special place in our hearts. What’s your favorite breed? Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever's Bird Dogs for Habitat campaign challenges upland hunters to cast a vote and make a donation on behalf of their favorite bird dog breed. All tax-deductible donations support Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever's wildlife habitat conservation mission – and the places where bird dogs love to hunt. https://www.birddogsforhabitat.org #birddogsforhabitat #birddogoftheday #uplandbirdhunting #WhatGetsYouOutdoors

"We must take the time to learn about our land, immerse ourselves in it, on a local level and from afar. After all, one doesn’t have to be in the uplands to answer its call." On a recent trip to The Aloha State, Pheasants Forever's Marissa Jensen found parallels between the Big Island and our own threats to grasslands in America's lower 48 states: https://bit.ly/3MffYlO #CalloftheUplands #habitat #grasslands #pheasantsforever

Some of Pheasants Forever's most thriving chapters can be found in the most unusual places. The North Central Pennsylvania Chapter of PF is located in the heart of the “PA Wilds,” comprising over 2 million acres of hardwood forest in Elk County, Pennsylvania. Despite this limitation, volunteers have carved out an important niche in their territory and have made it their mission to promote, educate and provide opportunity to participate in the tradition and community of upland hunting: https://bit.ly/3w6MEIt #pheasantsforever #volunteering #learntohunt #womenonthewing #habitat

If you read one article today, this is it. As hunters and conservationists, we reap the extreme benefits from being outdoors because it’s where we’re SUPPOSED to be. Our Path to the Uplands takes us in many different directions; we each have unique passions and interests. But while all roads may eventually lead to the fall months when we're most at peace, there is year around value in the pursuit of wild places: https://bit.ly/3vX5MZx Thanks to ALPS OutdoorZ for helping us find a remedy for what ails us...in the great outdoors! #alpsoutdoorz #outside #nature #publiclands #habitat #stressrelief #pheasantsforever

Harvesting of an "all day rooster" might just be one of the most gratifying experiences for an upland hunter. Ever tried it? Going against your gut to a new area, late in the season, with a chill in the air so piercing that it creeps into your bones? Here's the editor's story from the absolute northern fringe of the pheasant range in the Land of 10,000 Lakes: https://bit.ly/3PkAsM2 #publiclands #wildgame #habitat #cattails #pheasantsforever

Last week, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that it would accept 2 million acres via the CRP General Signup. With 3.4 million CRP acres set to expire, we still have work to do, but opportunities for enrollment still exist for farmers, ranchers, and landowners across pheasant and quail country. Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever remain positive about this working lands program - the nation's most important grassland reserve: https://www.outdoorlife.com/hunting/2-million-acres-crp-program/ Want to learn about other conservation options?

Happy Mother's Day from Pheasants Forever! On this day, we celebrate an appreciation of the trials and tribulations one mom cheerfully went through to support her daughter's passion for the outdoors. "She taught me to be fiercely independent, to break down boundaries, and she never discouraged me from trying new things. In the end, that was all I needed. So for that — and so much more — thank you, Mom." https://bit.ly/39MawIQ #mothersday #mothersday2022 #whatgetsyououtdoors #pheasantsforever
