Gambol's Quail is fairly common out here, but very timid. I attempted to be as stealthy as a an old fat guy can be on gravel, but the quail were able to stay ahead of me. It was more as though I were herding them. I did manage to get a few shots to before they tired of the game and flew off.

I LOVE those little guys! One of the highlights of visiting Tucson! Great pic, Phos!
Not a Quayle... a quail :)
I was afraid, too, that it was going to be a picture of the timid and rarely seen Dan Quayle, har har ;)
Put it on the grill and eat it!

In fact quail is quite good. I've had it grilled and I think even our carnivorous little lamb would have liked it. The eggs are good too, you can get them at most oriental markets.
Cute little quail Phos,a shame to eat it.
A carnivorous lamb, well that's something new and unexpected. :) xoxo
