The Gambel's Quail in Palo Duro Canyon are from a release from a nearby
property. This species has been released in the area previously. It is
currently unknown if the birds being seen right now are from a supplemental
release or from the initial release some years ago.
Thanks,

Mary Kay and I watched a male Gambel's Quail at the bird blind at Palo
Diro at sunset this evening. I don't have good refs at hand but this seems
way out of range, even given the species' expanding range in recent years.
Anyone one know of local introductions of GAQU in this part of Texas?
