Gambel’s Quail – Found at Bosque Del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico this bird was really quite cooperative. He was on one side of the road and I the other. I tried to stay below the grade of the road so I could look straight at the bird. Meanwhile, he was paying no attention to me at all. After I made this photograph the bird ran down the bank toward whom I assumed was his mate.
