THE ART OF UPLAND BIRD HUNTING Over time, every hunter finds him or herself. Over time, every hunting magazine becomes itself. The Art of Upland Bird Hunting seems an apt name for your annual Upland Bird Hunting Super Issue, which is getting ready for the presses. It all starts with Colt McDermott’s charcoal sketches of dusky grouse hunting for our cover and our lead story, Blue Notes. Alexandra Lehner (Immigrants of Opportunity) and Phil Juliano (Sieger and the Crevasse) make their debuts with The Habitat Organization too, and Kickliy returns in Hands of Time. Inimitable styles, all. But words, when strung together properly, are art as well, as is photography. The magic comes in the meld. Sign up for your PF or QF membership, or make sure you are renewed, by July 3 to make sure you make the list for this year’s Super Issue (🔗 Link in Bio). Then get looking, get reading, get dreaming, and get ready for another beautiful season in the uplands. – Tom “Carp” Carpenter, Editor #quailforever

Quail Fact Friday!💡 Here’s a “fact” for you: Quail > Pheasants. Sure, pheasants have their flashy colors and long tailfeathers, but did you know quail have a home-field advantage? Unlike pheasants, our beloved quail are true North American natives. They’ve been rocking the continent long before the pheasant made its flashy debut. So, as the 4th-of-July approaches, let’s give a shout-out to an OG American game bird that’s been here since the beginning. Let freedom (and quail calls) ring!

WATCH: A New Era for Bobwhite Quail. Link in our bio! In order to make significant progress in restoring bobwhite quail populations, wild lands and working lands must work together for the benefit of the life they support and the livelihoods they sustain. That’s why one of Quail Forever’s strategic priorities includes restoring and enhancing 780,000 acres of upland habitat on private land in targeted quail states by 2026. That may seem like a daunting task, but luckily there are proven programs, solid partnerships, and a brand-new opportunity for landowners to utilize. Watch our original film, “A New Era for Bobwhite Quail,” to learn about some of these landmark initiatives while also hearing from landowners who are making – and seeing – a difference for quail populations on their own properties in Georgia and Missouri. #Farming4Habitat #QuailForever #PheasantsForever #bobwhitequail

On The Wing Podcast Ep. 270: Use the Bobscapes App to Record Bobwhite Quail Encounters and Help Biologists, is live. Listen now at the link in our bio, or wherever you get you podcasts. Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by Quail Forever’s Dr. Jessica McGuire, University of Georgia’s Dr. James Martin, and Quail Forever Journal Editor Ryan Sparks for a conversation about the new “Bobscapes” mobile app. The group chats about citizen science, artificial intelligence, and using Bobscapes data to better understand bobwhite quail populations. Episode Highlights: • Dr. Martin discusses the evolution of citizen science in wildlife research and also theorizes ways artificial intelligence may be used to help biologists in the future. • Jokingly referred to as a Bobscapes app “super user,” Sparks explains how easy the app is to use and how he enjoys putting it to work on his family’s Nebraska farm. • Learn more about Bobscapes and download the free app at www.Bobscapes.org . This episode of On the Wing podcast was made possible by a grant from the #Farming4Habitat campaign.
