New Mexico Scaled Quail and Mexican Food!

[Mike Ohlinger]

Garry, I'm from Ohio on my first quail hunt. I am ignorant of sand burrs. She didn't seem to be chewing at the bottoms of her feet afterwards, so I guess I got lucky.

Great picture, sir.

We run into sand spurs in NW Kansas, but have nevr had to "boot up".
Mike, what part of Ohio are you from? I was born and raised in Belmont County, and still own a farm and work there. Grew up with tremendous grouse hunting in our area, sadly barely any here now.

Harold, I live in Pickaway county and we bought a place in Gallia county a couple years ago. I haven't seen a grouse for 20 years in Ohio.

Used to be very good grouse hunting in Gallia county, sad situation. I head north for 2 weeks a year now to try and satisfy that "grouse itch'

I do miss the old South Carolina plates. Looks like a fun trip.

Shawn, those are beautiful birds! Did you ever have any mounted? A pair of each species of quail would look fantastic.

Here’s a couple I’ve had mounted. I sent a few gambles and mearns to the same guy that mounted these and never heard from him again.

Thanks Shawn, very nice mounts. Sorry the other birds went MIA. That seems to be a recurring theme among taxidermists.

Scaled quail are great. I spent a week and a half camping in New Mexico this winter. Things have gotten crazy busy on my old stomping grounds. The oil field traffic was...um...monumental. That aside, I sure enjoyed the birds, the hunting, and when they showed up, the friends.
