Went hunting this morning at an undisclosed location in SE SD nicknamed the "meth lab". Parked the Tahoe at the edge of the driveway because I was paranoid about getting high centered. I was sitting there debating the 75 yard trek thru knee to waist deep snow when I saw a lone hen near a brush pile confirming my hunch. This brush/tree pile is the remains of the grove, and is the size of the inside of your garage. Boom - 30 roosters and 10 hens - near cardiac arrest trying to close the distance in the snow, took one long shot at rooster climbing vertical over 30 ft pines, and finished up in small cattail patch about 150 yards away. Good story, but it comes with bad news, there were no pheasant tracks around the brush pile, so if I am counting right the birds have been in there for at least 9 days. I have no idea when, where, or what they are going to eat.
