  4. great photo.

    We have a family of quail living in our front yard. There are only 3 babies, like little fuzzy ping pong balls scurrying around.

  6. I love quail. This is a nice close up. We have a pair that frequents our yard but they won't hold still long enough to get a picture.

  8. They are so skittish, I can't get a picture like this of the ones around my house. Perfect!

  10. I love these birds. Their herky jerky walk/run and the little voices that always seem at work. Great shot, Sharon.

  11. The quail was my mother's favorite bird. I gave her several pieces of quail pottery and now they are mine. I always think of her when I see them.
