Covey of Quail


Just before I left to teach a cello sectional this a.m. Geoff and I heard some very strange squawking noises. We looked out our front window and spied a rather large covey of California quail! (mother with plume and 6-8 big "chicks") Little visitors like these totally validate my decision to tear out the front lawn last year and replace it with native chaparral and less thirsty plants.
