Great shot, but why Dan?

I've got a feeling I'm gonna regret asking this.

Maybe because he looks just Dan-dy!

Nice photo.

Weird, I don't think I've ever seen a quail in a tree before. They're always running around on the ground, their head-feathers bobbing, making silly noises.

Great capture, though!

I can't recall a time I had seen one in a tree before either. For many years, I didn't even know they could fly....lol
