The California Quail is one of the most skittish birds in North America. The slightest sight of humans would make them run for cover in dense bushes, which makes photographing them in the wild extremely difficult. I spent days to find and photograph the male with one of the chicks in rough terrain. This species of Quail is also the official state bird of California.
