Walking down the track at my local birding spot,I rounded a bend and spotted 2 of these guys,only had time to fire off one shot before they scarpered.

Excellent!

I've only ever seen quails racing away from me at a great rate

Good capture Kev. Like Alan I've only seen these critters traveling at high speed into the scrub.

You've got to be quick.. and you were! Excellent shot.

That's a great shot Kevin - great detail, nice composition, especially considering you didn't have much time.

[Herby]

Beautifully composed shot.

Thanks,they are a very skittish bird,hard to get close to.
