California Quail (Callipepla californica)

Testing the large Tamron lens with the Canon 7D behind it. I think the 7D is handling the lens a bit better than the 60D, judging from this photo.

Super shot and detail Dick, many tfs and the 600mm is working well with the 7D.

Great photo, well caught. I had heard about these introduced birds, have to wait until we visit SS in the next year or two.

Glad its not a lens problem Dick. Nice shot of the Quail. I imagine its an introduced species?,

I suppose you shot it with the tripod. That is some distance you must have covered with the 600 mm tamron and great result you got too, Dick!! tfs.
