The Gambel's Quail according to a Wikipedia page is about 11 inches long. These were about 10 to 15 feet from where I was standing on a deck above them taking photos. Sony was zoomed pretty much to the max (20 times). I took a lot of photos, isn't that a surprise? Nah, I know, no surprise. With that top knot feature, they are rather enchanting birds, aren't they?
