Observation details
leaning toward sharp tail female; cannot rule out juveniles, I do not have the resources. However, short tail, clearly seen dark eyestripe, dark head coloring; all brown, dk brown, tan and white shades. next closest head coloring is prairie chicken, but body is more muted than photos. Sibley, AllBird-Cornell photos and descriptions for comparisons. not pheasant, ruffed eye stripe is white, this was definite darker. silent. iPhone photo was all I had time to document. habitat- we have 1 acre on each side of house planted in prairie, 4 acres to south on our property and 6 acres to east only harvested for hay in the late summer, 40 acres to west wetland, several acres further west not farmed- 2nd year; sand mine activity scheduled to start.
