We are surrounded by plantations that manage them to hunt. Lots of properly managed habitat nearby.

Haven't been quail in Michigan since the population explosion of the Red Tailed Hawk and coyote.

Now that there are bare spots on the driveway - I see quail every morning. Getting their grit. It's a lot bigger spot and more spots than under the carport.

Your Bobwhite quail look to be a bit bigger than our California Top Knot quail.

You have a quail season with a daily bag limit of 5 birds in Michigan.

Yup got a pheasant season in Michigan too, along with many other game animals. Haven't seen or heard a pheasant in my area in 30 years...except on the hunting preserves.
