Quail hatch

Recommended Posts

Might be a good one this year. They are even nesting in my wife’s flower pots. 

this pic is from a few days ago and as of this morning she has laid 9 eggs in the pot

No ifs, ands or buts, it WILL be a great season next fall (at least for Gambels...).   Like clockwork, given the solid winter/spring precipitation (at least in most areas), there will be a lot of birds.  Most certainly a 'double hatch' year and possibly triple. ;)

LOVE IT!

Took these pics at the end of March. We have two dead palm tree trunks in our front yard, mama quail nested in one of them. They have since hatched and are roaming about.

Palm trees trunks are just a bunch of fibers held together by the bark on the outside. You can stick your hand down thru the fibers and feel the difference in temp.
