The bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus), a small, ground-dwelling bird with its distinctive “bob-WHITE” call, is a staple of the fall landscape here in the Southeast. November is a great time to catch glimpses of these birds as they gather in coveys or groups of up to 25 birds and forage through open fields, forests, and grasslands. Bobwhite quail feed on seeds, insects, and vegetation, making them key players in balancing plant and insect populations. As the cooler months settle in, keep your ears and eyes tuned for their signature call tightly knit groups moving through the landscape! #wildlifewednesday #bobwhitequail #bobwhite #covey #colinusvirginianus
