The idea of Pollinator Week is simple: Build awareness for butterflies, bees and blooms....and everything that pollinator habitat does for upland birds! But there needs to be more of those kinds of places on the landscape. That’s what Pollinator Week is week is all about. Get involved. Every plant matters – one milkweed on the edge of a yard, or a hundred thousand wildflowers in a plot of improved prairie ground that you may be hunting this fall: https://bit.ly/3zQWO2d #pollinators #PollinatorWeek #pollinatorgarden #habitat #pheasantsforever #quailforever #CalloftheUplands

GAMEBIRD GOURMET // TANDOORI QUAIL: A TASTE OF INDIA FOR THE UPLANDS This grilled curried quail recipe is inspired by tandoori chicken, an Indian dish of marinated meat that is cooked in a cylindrical clay oven called a tandoor. Sticky bead dough is slapped onto the hot clay surface to cook, while meats are typically cooked upright on skewers. This special oven is fueled by charcoal or wood, so if you don’t have a tandoor oven — which is probably the case for most people — a charcoal grill would work just fine. https://bit.ly/3xye49K Gamebird Gourmet is presented by Walton's Inc
