Need help with rescue of baby quail

California quail, they are so pretty!

They're so cute! I bet they're great fun to watch. Might be worth giving them some new hiding spots in your yard to avoid predators, like big pots (on their sides) or pieces of brush.

If I were you, I'd save a few eggshells as a memento.

We have quite a few quail running about in our neighborhood here in AZ too. Just adorable to watch them cruising around.

Enjoy them.. I haven't heard one in 35 years till I bought some.

That's fantastic, thanks for sharing. Mumma is a pretty little thing!

Yesterday they had all headed off to the back yard--our neighborhood has open fencing and they found refuge in a beautiful yard of my neighbor who does not have dogs to bother them, with lots of bushes and trees. That shot of the babies by the side of the sound was right after their escape from the pot. The trip wore them out and the Mom and Pop both sat with them for quite awhile so they could rest, then by the afternoon they were running around like crazy through the fences and yards. I know they settled in for the evening. Not worried about them anymore

I just died of a cuteness attack.
