No field research around Tortugas Mountain today because we had to stick here at COC to take care of some paperwork. Research Associate Becca hates to be chained to a desk instead of roaming free in the desert, but every once in a while it's a necessary evil. Nevertheless, there's always time for a photo op or two here on the grounds. We noticed that some of the quail that were just peepers a month ago have turned into curious adolescents.
A few of these teenagers will soon be asking their parents if they can borrow the car keys to go out on dates.
I don't know what these individuals were eating, but they spent a lot of time feretting it out. Ants?

It's so nice to see these quail families. Packrat, have you ever seen their nests?
