Just look at the white streaks on the scapulars - down the edges of the feathers not the centres (ie along the shafts). Immediately tells you it is a Button-quail, not a true quail!

Check that it does not have a hind toe (the photo does not confirm this), but I would go with male Painted Button-quail.
