Baked Pheasant in Wine Sauce image

This recipe uses wild pheasant. It came from my grandmother to my mother to me. We traditionally served this recipe at Thanksgiving (during pheasant season). During cooking, it forms a sauce or gravy that thickens best if stirred just a little when the sherry is added.
