The science isn't really all that strict. A self-sustaining (ie, breeding
on their own in the wild, and that being where they came from) population
becomes countable. This gives us Purple Swamphen after a couple of
generations, Rosy-faced Lovebird in Phx, and certainly Ring-necked
Pheasants.
Matt,
I went to see the Chukar. I can get you the lady’s name and contact info if
you want to go see it. It has been hanging around her back yard. It’s a
beautiful bird. Call me at 719-639-1613.

I'm thinking the vast majority of Ring-necked Pheasants shouldn't be countable
either. How many generations away from the released ancestor does it have to be
to be countable?Count it and enjoy the bird. The strict science is taking all
the fun out of this pastime.

Matt,
The person reporting the Chukar isn't known by the general Colorado Springs
birding community, so we've no way of contacting her.
Also, it's my understanding that the only wild Chukars are on the Western
Slope, so this bird is likely one that was to be used for hunting purposes.
For that
Hey there?
Is there any contact or visitor information for going to see the Chucker in the
Springs?
Thanks,
