Northern Bobwhite along the Roadside at Evening
Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to really set up and photograph this one as we had to take it from a car in the gathering gloom of evening - but JD has only one other picture of the Northern Bobwhite, so I thought that I would add mine as well.
The northern bobwhite is a ground-dwelling bird native to the United States, Mexico, and the Caribbean. The name "bobwhite" derives from its characteristic whistling call. Despite its secretive nature, the northern bobwhite is one of the most familiar quails in eastern North America because it is frequently the only quail in its range.
