[obol] Northern Bobwhite in Canby

[Randy Prakken]

There is no question about it.  I have seen and heard a Bobwhite about 5 times 
during the last week in my back yard just South of Canby.  5 minutes on it 
with the binocs at 40 feet, male on a stump calling and watching, female 
grazing nearby.  My wife, birding much longer than me, has seen it as well.

My Nat Geo guide shows only one spot in Eastern Oregon and none in Idaho. 
 However, I heard them growing up in Idaho as well.

Do quails really move around this much or is the book out of date?
