Rooster Quail

wonderful picture. L

Beautiful light and color with nice bokeh, Jeff!!

Congratulations on your feature in Animal Mania

P.S. I lived in Central Oregon at the time.

What a beautiful bird. My favorite story is of a family of Quail. I stopped my car to on a dirt road to let a Quail family cross safely. After they were all in the bushes one of the parents turned and charged the car to show me who was boss. Excellent photo.

Excellent photo of a California Quail. They are so similar to our Gambel's Quail that is what I called it when I first saw it. The difference is the location where they are seen and the California Quail had light brown color above his beak. Very sweet with such a big smile appearing to be on his face.

The more I looked the more I wanted to SMILE. He sure does have a big smiling face!
