Hi everyone/russell, yes the king quail
is recorded often in the summer months
and Pitt Town and Bushells lagoons as
 well as Cornwallis Rd, Richmond are 
regular sites. Yes they are not the best
to see but I have had success in calling
them out of cover by imitating their call
which is not to difficult a call to imitate.
But mostly they are in high grass and 
the usual sighting is when flushed, and 
as they dont fly to far befor dropping
into cover you dont get much of a view.
