It was one of the funnest hunts I guess I’ve ever experienced. Not only did we get several bobwhites, but scaled quail as well. It was way down in south TX.

It’s a travesty what happened to the Bobwhite Quail across the southeast. I grew up hunting quail in soybean fields and coveys by the dozens. It was all but gone by my mid teens. I love to watch my pointers work in a covey of birds. Nothing beats hunting behind some well trained dogs. They are true masters of their craft.

We simply located these birds on the roads, would park and go flush them on foot.

No more row crops or fence lines anymore. Coyotes and more predators. "We have an opponent in this state that we work every day, 365 days a year, to dominate."

Last day of the season in 1988 we got up 13 coveys and that was the least day we had that year. Those were some of the best days of my life. I haven’t heard a whistle in years. Used to be so many around here I could call them up on my porch in the summer. I think maybe fire ants are hurting them bad. http://familyfoundationfund.org Proud descendant of confederate soldiers.

They’ve been known to hybridize but that bird was a pure male scaled. The males have a lot of chestnut/rusty orange on the lower breast.
