Quail Drama April 2011



It is springtime. The quail are showing off their colors.



Looking for something to eat.



Yum! So tasty!



Two days later, and 3 inches of snow (and still snowing), they still know enough to come for breakfast.



But a hungry magpie attacked, and they barely escaped, losing just a few feathers!



On the next attack, the quail was not so lucky!



Nature is not always pretty, and it's not always kind!
