A law professor, a Circuit Judge and a District Judge go
hunting pheasants. As they walk through the woods, a bird
comes flying through the air and the Circuit Judge raises his
shotgun. As he takes aim, he lectures his colleagues:
"There is a four-part test to determine whether a bird is a
pheasant.. First, the bird must have a long neck. Second,
the neck must have a ring-like pattern. Third, the bird's body
must be large with brilliant colors. Fourth, it must have a
long, feathered tail."
By the time the Circuit Judge finishes applying the test, the
bird is way out of range.
A while later, another bird comes along and the law professor
takes aim. "This bird meets the test," he says, "but it is
flying over a stream. Accordingly, we must consider the
policy implications of using lead shot which may fall into the
water, be consumed by fish and other species, and have an
adverse impact on the ecosystem." By the time the
professor gets done weighing the policy factors, the bird is in
the next county.
After a while another bird flies out over the stream. The
District Judge aims at the bird, fires both barrels and kills it.
"Damn," he says, "I sure hope that was a pheasant."
