Quail Picture-No

Quail, black and white photo, close up, singleQuailSingle

The quail picture entitled ‘No’ was shot through our utility room window on May 5, 2005. It won a blue ribbon at the Humboldt County Fair. The judge asked me several times, half joking, how I got this sentry to pose while watching over his covey. At the time I had no experience photographing quail that are extremely skittish and seem to detect movement even in the house. They are delightful to watch, especially when the very young birds run across the yard or driveway in single file. We have coveys of 30 to 40 quail during the summer.
