Charming photo of California Quail by Paul Batchelder

California Quail are fun to watch and to photograph. The strikingly beautiful male Quail is often seen guarding his family from a high point. Paul Batchelder captured a whimsical moment where a covey of Quail met their metal brother. Thanks to Paul for allowing me to share his photo with you!

You are right, Frank! The metal Quail looks like it is questioning the covey. Too funny!
