Quail

Click on the photo to see it at its best.

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, June 10, 2024
We were very surprised to see a Northern Bobwhite Quail, Colinus virginianus, eating the seed spilled underneath our bird feeder!

Have a wonderful weekend!

I am linking in today with Saturday's Critters

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16

"Know ye that the Lord he is God; it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful unto Him and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endures to all generations" Psalm 100:3-5

    Great photo and sighting of the Bobwhite. They are shy and hard to find.

  4. When we first moved here 36 years ago, I would see Bobwhites around our yard regularly but it's been a long time since I've seen one here. Too many people now, I guess.
