I appreciate your visit, Ed. They were very relaxed and hung out under the patio table for almost an hour.

Excellent shots, Mike! I have never seen quail like this before. Any sign of improvement of the weather?

You are very generous, John. The quail are new to our neighborhood. We rarely get substantial birds in our yard because the development is relatively new and the trees are not mature. The weather is gradually getting better, but the forest fire smoke lingers.

Clearly the highest class birds to ever visit our yard, Eugene.

Evolve to survive.
Yes, UTMike, they survive well incur gated community on 'Handouts' even tho' they don't are so shy around humans-and I don't blame them. However, the roadrunners come everyday sometimes twice to feed their next of kin. We've had them eat on our toes, denims and shoulder. Yet they never let us touch them.

Cool looking birds Mike. The Bobwhite quail in the Northeast looks different than your California quail.

Cute rotund birds and very good set Mike. They can be very noisy!
