W.V. Francis 1963. California Quail. Aug. 11, Strawberry Canyon, Alameda Co. 1824. Orange + 2 young feeding in A-4 as Red ♂ walked to next site, then resumed feeding nearby. 1819 a group of 2 ♂ and 4 immature ♀ of about 6 weeks perched on top of pen above A-5 where Green ♂ chicks, Orange ♂ + ♀ chicks, and Red- yellow pair were feeding. I saw two others "climb" the pen dry starting at the bottom flutter their wings while climbing at the fence at the same time. There were finally 8 young birds with a ♂ and a banded ♀, the other ♂ having moved off. 1825 Red-Yellow and Green family with definitely 7 chicks feeding industriously on A-5. Orange + chicks recently in this same area. 1828. Green ♂ chased an immature ♂ - probably one of his own, since the throat & head markings appeared less distinct than noted on the two Orange young yesterday. 1830 As I entered the pen, the family over A-5 flew into woods, and another large group of at least 20 quail flew from the north corner of the pen down the hill
