I've finally written one of my own
Lowe, the eve-borne quail song
Crow, and know it trails the dying sun

Recently got an interest in collecting poetry about coturnix quails. I havent found much, but I thought it might be worth posting about here in case anyone has similar interests. All replies to this thread welcome, including poetry of your own! I'll update it if I find any more quail poetry...

Hello! You can call me HQ,
I like drawing, usually with pencils (mechanical, colored, or otherwise), paint pens, etc but I'll use whatever I have on hand so long as it stays on the paper.
I mostly draw for fun, but I'd like to improve my anatomy/proportions so I can draw all sorts of animals...
