Last year (10 May) at Finch Central a family of Brown Quail were walking past my feet. I didn't have time to get the camera out, but would have needed the macro setting!

This species is quite conspicuous on NW Cooleman Ridge/S Narrabundah Hill
at the moment. Not calling but we’re regularly flushing up to 10 at a time
(and sometimes more within the next 0.5 km) when we walk there. A number
of times they’ve been relatively in the open and you’ve been able to get the
binos on them for a little while before they fly.
