Where We Conserve
Our first release states are Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Kansas and Iowa, with more states being scouted. Members see every release spot and date on the members-only release map.

Some released birds will wear unique numbered bands. Bands help us learn how releases perform, and they give members something extra to look for, with special prizes for reported bands. Reporting details are coming to the app.
Your membership today will directly fund the first release of the Banded Bird Project.

Birds can be released anywhere, but they only thrive where there's grass to nest in, food to eat and cover to survive winter. Habitat is what turns a released bird into a wild population. That's why releases and habitat go hand in hand at Pheasant Nation.
