Do you know your dirt? Identifying the soil type and condition on a property can help landowners make the most impact when they are improving wildlife habitat on their land. A site visit with a Quail Forever Farm Bill biologist can be a great way to identify what soil type is on a property and create a management plan which reflects that.

Quail Fact Friday! As Midwest winter finally gives way to spring, the iconic “Bob-white” call begins echoing across the heartland. The shrubby cover used to hide from predators and the icy chill of January is now a stage for the spring show. You can find male bobwhite quail perched on fence posts and shrub thickets or edge feathering, making their presence known. The large coveys of winter are breaking up as individuals begin to form pair-bonds and find territory for nesting. Are you one of the lucky ones to hear the springtime serenade this year? Let us know in the comments. Photo by: Josh Marshall

20 Years and Counting - The Story of Quail Forever There is only one way to tell a story, and that is to start at the beginning. This is the story of Quail Forever, an inspiring tale of leadership, unity, and a deep-rooted commitment to conserving quail habitat across America. In August 2005, Quail Forever was founded, and the first chapter was formed. From those humble beginnings, we have grown into a national force for conservation. Our work spans the prairies of the Great Plains, the deserts of the West, and the pine savannas of the Southeast. In 2021, we reached 5 million acres of habitat improvement. By 2024, we surpassed 7 million acres, more than 20,000 members, 220 quail-focused staff biologists, and 200 active Quail Forever chapters. But this is just the beginning.

Quail Fact Friday! Did you know American plum (Prunus americana) is a powerhouse plant for bobwhite quail? This native shrub provides essential cover for nesting, loafing, and escaping predators, while its fruit offers a sweet snack for all kinds of wildlife, including quail. From young broods to adult coveys, thickets of American plum create the perfect refuge for bobwhites throughout their life cycle. Plant it, protect it, and watch quail thrive! #quailforever #quail #quailfactfriday
