California Quail

As I was leaving work tonight, I hear a bird calling from the tree just in front of my car. There was this little male California Quail. First one I have ever seen in the wild.

@chanimal @3rdxoff Thanks too bad about the branches and telephone wires but when I tried to slowly circle to a better vantage point, he flew away:(

I like the diagonal lines... but you can always process the image and clone them out.

The details are fantastic - great capture!

@3rdxoff @linnypinny You're right AC....I should have taken the time to take out those power lines.....I think I will go back and do that. :) Thanks Lin for your comments.
