Hi Jen: You can get the following article on-line though ADS:
McCormick Finbar 1994 'Excavations at Pluscarden Abbey'. Proceedings
of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. Vol 124, Pp 391-432.
In there I have a wee report (pp 414) on the feather remains which
contained some of pheasant and there are a few references to the
introduction of this bird both ion Scotland and England.
All best wishes,
Ruby
