A Queer of Quail ~

A group of quail can be a queer, a covey, a flock, or a bevy. These quiet quail are sculpture at the beautiful Tohono Chul Park, a wonderful place to refresh yourself with art, greenery, and a tea room, too!

    Had to laugh at a memory. When flying years ago, when the pilot needed some coffee, he would address one of us as "quail in the tail" so that we would respond to his request for a beverage.
