Big Family of Mountain Quail

 
  The quail know to come for an afternoon dip in the pool (the bird water dish) that I try to keep filled with fresh water. Just before I took these shots, the local mockingbird, who thinks he owns the water and the whole property for that matter, tried to shoo the quail away. Unsuccessful, because of the number of quail I think.....thirteen in all....Mr. Mockingbird stood by unhappily until they had their fill and left.
