Hearing the call of a gambel's quail is one of my favorite sounds of nature.
For the #birdoftheday theme of #goldenhour, here is one at dawn that was calling to others as the day began.

๐ฆBabies!!! And they're SO tiny!
We saw them for the first time two or three days ago, and we know they can leave the nest within a few hours of being hatched, so we think they really are just three days old.

I love how daddy Q has to toss that dove out of the watering hole so his family can come hydrate & cool down.

A #GambelsQuail almost looks like it was colored by paint by numbers. Look at those wonderful outlines around the face, and the fabulous hairstyle that matches the breast feathers. ๐ค๐ฉถ๐ค๐งก๐ค

Male and female #GambelsQuail look similar. Both share a gorgeous topknot (feathers sticking out of head), but the male has a bolder black mask around their face and more black on their belly, while the female has more buffs and greys.

My first #GambelsQuail was a fortunate encounter. We had just finished a brief hike and were sitting down to rest when this little birb scurried across our path.

One of my favorite sounds is to hear gambel's quail calling. I enjoy watching them, and knowing they are nearby
