Quail Fact Friday! In winter, bobwhite quail must balance energy value with predation risks. While grain seeds provide the highest energy value, there is no protection from predators in harvested fields. This highlights the importance of diverse habitat within a bobwhite's home range. Fallow or "weedy" fields provide the most consistent food and cover for winter. To survive winter, quail need high-energy seed sources in close proximity to quality protective cover. Quail Fact Friday is presented by Irish Setter Boots #quailforever #quailfactfriday

Ringing in the new year with a covey rise. Cheers to 2026 friends! 📸 : QF Journal Editor, Ryan Sparks #quailforever #thehabitatorganization
