Hunting and Fishing in NJ - A forum for NJ Hunters and NJ Anglers

So there I was cutting some marble tile outside of a condo complex in Lincoln Park...

I look up from my work and there struts by a huge ringneck!

I was bugged out! I can't make a pheasant call so I gobbled and clucked a bit like a turkey... It stared at me at walked off. Huh!

I start cutting again and as soon as I do it turns around and runs up the driveway... starts looking at me all half-cocked and then turns away again.

I walked up to within 10 feet of the bird and it didn't even flinch. Not until I got my buddy Ralph who was working with me to check out the bird did it get panicked. It took flight straight up pheasant-style and went right over the building.

So strange to see such a cool looking animal in a condo-camp...

Only in New Jersey!

So that's why you've been MIA.....

MONEY is the name of the game

Wow...I wonder where it came from? Are there any clubs nearby?

Are there any clubs nearby?

Yes in Lincoln Park and neighboring towns as well

Where in Lincoln Park? That's where I am. Since you said condo complex I'll guess either off of Skyline, PIne Brook, or 202. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a resident from the farm on 202. Great cover back there for them.

Pine brook?! I didn't realize that there was hunting there...wow.
