Christmas for my feathered friends

Southern California

A covey of quail?
What a wonderful sight to see so many quail feasting on the seeds I put out every morning. Usually they feed on the ground but lately more and more of them are feeding with the other birdsfrom a very large plant saucer I use for a platform seed feeder. I love how one of the quail is using the peanut for a foot rest! ;-D

What a gang. Give Pogo an extra goodie for the warning chirp!

Nothing short of amazing. Glad you were fast with the camera. Are there 10 or 11?
