Mine are Quail they remind me of the road runners they also make a pretty cool sound. I like how the male will perch it's self on a rock and keep an eye out for danger to keep it's family safe and if there is danger the female will run into the brush lift her wings up and the babies will run under her wings for safety. About the only thing I don't like about Quail is sometimes a pair of adult Quail will kidnap the young of other Quail families. Then they will make those young walk at the back of the line - predators will usually pick off the young at the back of the line - the pair of Quail do it to help insure that their gene pool will survive (their babies aren't picked off). Cheers!
