My new friends ~ Updated 6 weeks later
I was pleasantly surprised when I looked up and saw these cute little guys this morning. It's the biggest clutch I've had here. 9 chicks in all. There
are a lot of predators around right now so I hope momma can hold on to at least a few.

Paulina,
My professor friend says they are the "Lophortyx californicus" or California Quail. We also have a large population of them here in Oregon.
and Russ, the photos are a Friday morning joy!! Muchisima gracias.

Exactly. Ergo, I stand by my original post: El Nido in Loreto. And, may I suggest a half-order of gordoniz with a half- of Piernas de Rana, they
will accommodate. A fine Merlot or Cabernet from their cellars go well too. They stock only Reserve wines, a bottle costs almost (if not more) than
your entrée. Wonderfully delicious!

Nice groupings on the target, but a little off center.
Practice, practice, practice.

So no one gets the wrong idea. I bunch paper not critters. Maybe a rat now and then. Quail are not on my target list. I'm shooting a Benjamin Marauder
177 and it's a lot of fun. I'm going to start om moving targets. watizname want to volunteer?
