DURATION DISCRIMINATION IN NORTHERN BOBWHITE QUAIL
Bioacoustics, 1990ABSTRACT We examined the ability of northern bobwhite quail Colinus virginianus to discriminate along the duration dimension because of its suspected importance in their ability to identify individual covey members. If quail are using variability along this dimension to identify individuals we would expect their auditory resolving powers to be ...

CROP IMPACTIONS IN BOBWHITE QUAIL IN LOUISIANA
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1978Crop impactions (solid, hard masses of seeds) caused by seeds of clammy weed (Cuphea carthagenensis) were found in bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) killed during the 1965-71 hunting seasons in Louisiana. Emaciation and weakened condition were associated with the presence of crop impactions in two quail, suggesting that physical obstruction of the ...

Taste discrimination in bobwhite and Japanese quail
Animal Behaviour, 1965Abstract Groups of bobwhite and Japanese quail, at 10 days and at 6 weeks old, were tested in the 4 taste modalities: sweet, sour, salt and bitter. Drinkers of contrasted colours were used for the test solution and for tap water, giving extra visual stimulus to aid optimum discrimination.

Winter Protein Requirements of Bobwhite Quail
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1944was nearly as high as on the diet containing 14 per cent sardine meal, but the average live weight per bird was only 139 grams. The difference between this weight and that for the birds on Diet 11 (3% dried whey) was not statistically significant. The general rating for the diet was as high as that for Diet 11, when ground wheat replaced ground millet ...

BQI is a voluntary program that provides private landowners with technical assistance and, on a competitive basis, financial incentives for habitat improvement. It is primarily directed at increasing the abundance of nesting and brood rearing habitat, factors most commonly limiting quail populations across Georgia's landscape.

Distinguishing Juvenile from Adult Bobwhite Quail
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1957years the data may provide justification for continued open seasons, despite poor hunting success early in the season. The separation of juvenile and adult bobwhite quail has been based primarily on wing-feather characteristics. Dwight (1900) apparently was the first to make an intensive study of plumage changes in quail. He reports that the two distal
