Bob White In A Tree

Description
This male Northern Bobwhite quail briefly flew onto this perch and just stayed long enough for a quick photo. Isn't he handsome? I was excited to see a small group of these birds running across a small open section in a field, while out taking photos in South Texas.
An emphatic, whistled bob-white ringing from a grassy field or piney woods has long been a characteristic sound of summers in the Eastern countryside. It’s quite a bit harder to spot a Northern Bobwhite, as the bird’s elegantly dappled plumage offers excellent camouflage. They forage in groups, scurrying between cover or bursting into flight if alarmed. Bobwhites have been in sharp decline throughout the past half-century, likely owing to habitat loss and changes in agriculture, and they are an increasingly high priority for conservation.
Photo taken on March 4, 2021, in Southern Texas.
