Another shot w/the Spotting Scope Telephoto

Family calls these things "dongle" birds because of their head gear.

We're being overun with them. The males squawk like a cross between a mini-peacock and a mini-crow.

California quale, I guess. They are fun little birds

HI ROY

NICE SHOT OF A BEAUTIFUL BIRD.

WHAT KIND OF RIG ARE YOU USING, SCOPE AND CAMERA?

SURE LOOKS GOOD TO THESE OLD EYES.

28 views and no one commented on the bird

I incorrectly identified the bird. Its a Gambels Quail.

Scope is Nikon, camera is an Olympus digital. Its all held together on a 1 X 4 with holes in the right places for 1/4" all-thread to fasten the components.

Great fun.
