The last Violet-green Swallow baby fledged on Saturday.
Now all is quiet in the nesting boxes.

Now it's time for California Quail babies.
My father saw a large group along the driveway far from the house.

No sign yet of any in the backyard. 

There are a two or three quail couples that hang out.

It is possible that they are still sitting on eggs.

I'm hoping for two or three different family groups this year.

Thoughtful

Marching

Watching and waiting.

Beautiful patriotic sampler, Beth! The Quail are quite handsome. I hope you get more in your backyard.
