The Eastern Blue Jay is the undisputed boss of the backyard. When the winter settles in and snow falls, more of these birds congregate, some having come from more northerly areas. The bright blue and subtle grays of their feathers make them a delight to watch, despite their noisiness. Jays have quite a personality, and will mimic hawk calls. One has to wonder why - are they just having fun?

The California Quail has to be considered one of the cutest birds to ever exist. With their bobbing head feathers, and their silly antics, one could never get tired of watching these little birds. They tend to travel in fairly large flocks in the winter, and exhibit herd behavior, one following the leader, no matter where that leader goes.

They are delightful and beautiful birds of the west.  Modoc, is a county in California. It is in the far right corner, nestled between Nevada and Oregon. The wildlife is extremely abundant there, these quail being no exception. 

The Eastern Bobwhite Quail has dropped in numbers in the northeast  over the years. One reason we see less of them, is that it is a struggle for them to survive the cold New England winters , as this area is the very northern edge of their range.  They do show up now & then however, and it is always an exciting thing to see Bobwhites in New England.
