Quail Fact Friday! Have you ever heard of masked bobwhite quail? They are a subspecies of northern bobwhites and are some of the rarest quail in North America. Their striking black facial mask and rich chestnut breast differentiate them from other bobwhite subspecies. Once abundant in the desert grasslands of Arizona and Mexico, their numbers have plummeted due to habitat loss and overgrazing. Today, masked bobwhites survive in the northern Mexican state of Sonora as well as a reintroduced population on the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge in southern Arizona. To learn more about masked bobwhites head to the link in the bio or check out “In the Shadows of Mesquite” from the Summer 2024 issue of Quail Forever Journal. #quailforever #quail #quailfactfriday
