Today as i was walking home through a park in
wahroonga i found a dead quail of some sort it was being picked at by a
currawong and it a had a naasty wound on its head.
(it has no leg bands or anything to say it ia an
aviary bird.
And i do not think there is any aviarys around this
small walkway)
I took the quail home and looked through the books
to find that it was either a red chested or little button quail it is not a
brown quail or a painted button quail for i have had experience with these
species.
ps It has a buff band around neck and buff on rump
and white under parts.
