Hungarian partridges



Yesterday on the lane into my friend's farm near the west border of Riding Mountain we saw three Hungarian partridges just a short way off the lane. This is the first I recall having seen these birds but perhaps I have seen them before. These partridges are not native to Manitoba but have adapted well. I have heard that they tend to drive out native partridges from areas they inhabit.
