No one brings you compelling birding/nature journalism like BirdingPI.com! Case in point, today’s post – Quail on a Fence!
All lovely Gambel’s Quail in Tucson, all on a fence! Good opportunity here to see both adult and juvenile – usually ensconced in shrubbery/vegetation.
Per our friends at All About Birds, “The male’s prominent black belly patch distinguishes it from the similar California Quail.” (See shots above and immediately below.)
