There was one little quail that was very agressive. Meanest little bird ever. He was smaller than the other males but he didn't seem to know it. He was mean to the girls and picked fights with all the roos. It had come to the point I wanted to squish him like a bug. One day I just grabbed him up and put him in jail. He was about 6 feet away and could see all the others. Two days later he was pitiful. So I put him back and he's been the best little man since.
Your bird doesn't sound aggressive at this point to me but I've only been keeping quail since June. eHuman is a better judge than me. He'll probably answer when he sees this. My little monster had a bloody head all the time and at first I thought he was being bullied. Turned out he was the bully. Since his jailing my community group is peaceful and has been for some time. You will see him pulling the females down and not letting go till they fall over. Mine did that and he wasn't even trying to mate atm.
