About two weeks ago a member of WIRES brought me a Painted Button Quail
which was picked up in Caringbah and taken to a vet. The bird had a >3 week
old fracture of the tarsus and a more recent fracture in a small carpal bone
but otherwise a good weight >82g and healthy condition. It was also found on
a suburban street and was an adult.  Needless to say there was very little
Quail habitat where it was found. Ciao
