A California Quail.
When I look at your birds, I always think they would be fabulous in a bird guide book.
This is a very nice one....you did good.

I appreciate your good comment, fergmark. There are too many bird guides on the market now.

This was a large Quail (about 10") here in Post Falls, north Idaho. They call them California Quails even though they live
in many Western States besides California.
Thank you very much, mike22.

After all the major book stores in my area closed years ago, I am completely out of the loop, but your photos should be in a coffee table book where they can be appreciated.
