Near Ocala is where I do my quail hunting. I was told by an old timer that he thought fire ants were the downfall of the quail population, just imagine a chick fresh out of the shell and covered in fire ants.
Thanks for the good wishes, I hope next Sat is the day.

Just goes to show ya a bird (hen) in the hand is better than the bird that might be in bush:rotf::rotf:

Great photos Angel. Looks like a good hunt, despite the hen
