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.
