It was mentioned in at least one write-up of the passing of [Antonin_Scalia] that these birds may also be present in some parts of Texas. (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/texas-tv-station-scalia-died-of-a-heart-attack/2016/02/14/938e2170-d332-11e5-9823-02b905009f99_story.html) I presume they didn't fly there on their own...— Precedingunsigned comment added by24.118.163.130 (talk)03:21, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind that. I just realized the bird hunted in Texas is properly known as the [Scaled_quail] but sometimes popularly called the Blue quail. It might be useful to have a link from this to that in case other people come to this page looking for the Scaled quail.— Precedingunsigned comment added by24.118.163.130 (talk)03:24, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
