Feathered Friday -Gamble's QuailsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #featheredfriday5 years ago (edited)

Caught some close-up shots of gambles quail at Tohono Chul park in Tucson Arizona. This is a great place for birdwatching as most the critters seem really tame.

Profile view of gamble's quail.

Nice coppery mohawk.

Bonus round-tailed ground squirrel.
Happy #featheredfriday

It looks like a tail hehehe

I used to see big flocks of these guys in arizona all their little dollups poking up in the grass. They have a funny thing they do if you are driving on a dirt road and one gets in your way it will refuse to fly out of the way and just will keep trying to outrun the car.

The tohono chul park is great for easy nature shots. All the animals are pretty used to humans taking pics.

I like bonus pictures., nice shots of the quail.

Plenty of rodent bonus pictures they're good practice subjects when birds aren't around.
