[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 146178, member: 816"] "blocks" is the key word. any block of decent habitat and food will do. unless its a horrible winter with a ton of snow (like this winter already i guess), normally the entire block won't fill in. the upwind side will be full and the downwind side not so much. they don't have to be huge blocks. just something bigger than your typical width of a 1-5 row tree belt. i think that's why you always see them able to find cover in farm yards. they are a decent size "block" of about 10-40 acres. those yards like GSTs do wonders for game in winters like this. we hunted a friends family's place for pheasants out west this year. he had a video from a long time ago. shot on a camcorder and later preserved on a DVD. the video was of their farmstead and they literally had thousands of pheasants in that yard that winter. the estimate was upwards of 5,000 [/QUOTE]
