Quail? or Photoshop? interesting!
I just know you wouldn't do a photoshop on us but that quail has some serious oddities.
Edit: add a pic. Not nearly Big's quality but the topnotch, beak, & feet seem correct?
That's some quail you've got there Big!

No Photo Shop Russ but that quail looks like he's been sucking on a lime or something?

Bishop, thats where we used to go... and over Bishop Pass down onto the John Muir Trail.. he started taking us "camping" and "hiking" when very
young... and we all had backpacks.. which were only about 12-15 pounds.. but, can remember those "trips"... one time we saw only one person in two
weeks... a guy that was hiking the entire trail... the guy stayed with us for a day or two.. and then continued on ... was a different time.. only
worried about "animals" getting into gear... ya could leave a camp and never think about anyone doing "anything" which would be considered "bad
behavior"...
But, it got too crowed for the old man... and he switched on travels, to the south ... and his favorite place became La Mision .... where he started
staying .. a lot in the late fifties and early sixties.. at a place that belonged to a lady who's husband had died, and stopped using her place ...
all most bought it.. but, our mother did not like Mexico.. period.. so he did not get it... that was a very long time ago..
Must admit, taking off again and heading back down sounds good to me... however, the wife is not really up for another trip down, at this time.. plus
I'm working on getting back "up"... a little too much trying do things for Christmas.. put be back down, I'm back up to where I can sit again.. but,
walking is still a way off ... getting up and around the house..
Thanks for the picture of your horse... looks like the big gal.. has so good feed and some room... that pretty cool.. and its been a while since I've
seen that Sac area from the ground...
Will keep at it... hoping to get back up.. and do it again, if possible..

....I can sit again"
Hell yes! That's great news.
Use to ice fish a lot in the Bishop area....trout come out frozen from the water it was so cold :-) I still use the area ....up behind Yosemite off
the 395 (Green Valley) and the June Loop. Lonepine is another favorite spot.
You got a rain check for "pick up" service to Baja :-)

That would be me on the Zebra Mule with the sombreo in Tijuana in 1957. I don't have a copy of the picture, but I've seen it, and I remember my first
trip to Baja was in 1957 because we had a new 1957 Ford station wagon.

The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.
