Quail Fact Friday - Many turkey hunters don't realize wild turkeys and bobwhite quail both depend on early successional habitat: native grasses, forbs, and shrubby cover created by fire, grazing, or other disturbances. Early successional habitat produces insects for broods, bare ground for movement, and nearby escape cover. When land is well managed both species benefit. Turkey broods forage in the same bug-rich openings bobwhite chicks rely on, while shrubby edges and plum thickets provide security for quail coveys. If your property holds good quail habitat, it's often working for turkeys too. Quail Fact Friday is presented by @irishsetterboots

The Desert Triumvirate Series - "Make Mine Gambel's" "Perhaps my favorite thing about Gambel's quail is this: most of them live on public land. There's no better feeling than standing at the edge of a wash, scanning an expanse of cover you couldn't walk out in a week, and knowing you're free to roam. The birds are there. The dogs are ready. The desert waits." - E. Donnall Thomas Jr. Read "Make Mine Gambel's" now at the link in our bio Artwork by: @katehall_art
