The Gambel's quail is named in honor of William Gambel, a 19th century naturalist and explorer of the Southwestern United States.birds are easily recognized by their top knots and scaly plumage on their undersides. Gambel's quail have gray plumage on much of their bodies, and males have copper feathers on the top of their heads, black faces, and white stripes above their eyes.

Excellent shot of this handsome fella, Bryan! I grew up with quail running around our property in Flintridge, California, attended Audubon Elementary School where I learned so much about ornithology as a child! My new home in Queens Creek, AZ is amassed with Gambel's Quail and I always make sure that I put out a seed block for them. I'm with Lois! These little buggars are very difficult to capture with the camera as they are so darn skittish of humans. Fav'd, liked, tweeted, and FB!
