These quail are on the bottom of a DHE 28ga skeet I’ve seen...

The long barrel BHE 20-gauge, said to have belonged to Clark Gable, that visited our PGCA booth at The Vintage Cup at Sandanona had a Dove in flight on the left side and a California Valley Quail on the right. Unfortunately my snap shot of that gun is too washed out to show the Quail.

And the 32" 28 ga. thought to have been owned by the same gentleman had quail on the floorplate. Those pics can be found on page 20 "Parkers for Sale" section.

This quail may only fly short distances due to problems with lift......

But, Dean, he's well fed! Obviously a product of good habitat (and a beautiful gun!).

Sorry, these birds below flew by me at my semi-annual "wipe-down day" One often finds birds of another feather at the back of the safe.

It’s pretty simple: just edit the photo in some way (if you took the photo with the camera sideways, just flip it in the edit), save the edit, and then post. I use Apple products so there may be some additional steps if you are using something else.

I simply crop the tiniest edge of a photo and it will always post right side up.

Garry has it right. All you need is some kind of Photoshop program. I use my ancient version of Corel's Paintshop Pro from at least 10 if not 15 yrs ago. No need to upgrade it as it works just fine. If you have a Microsoft operating system you can open their "Paint" photo program that has been included in every version of Windows since Day 1 and which has photo rotation capability(I just checked). You can also "insert" a photo into MSWord and rotate it via an option in the tool bar and save it in a Word doc. You can then save the picture out of that document as a JPEG and post it.
