California Quail

Sorry, but here's another critter shot, but from the local foothills.
Seems to be a theme from my recent pictures.

My best shot of this elusive bird, taken at sunset.

Nikon D70 ,Nikkor 28-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF
1/40s f/5.6 at 200.0mm iso800 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

You're right. They are elusive and hard to capture.

This is a beautiful shot.

Very nice. I think the grain from the 800 ISO is attractive in this photo. Good capture.

Great background. Very well composed.

interesting to see the quail. it's nicely framed and i like the way you have included
some of its environment in the background as well.
