BakesThings you see when you don't have a shotgun.
We've been walking the dogs for the up coming course around what we call the triangle. It calls for a walk through some light bush/grass and over the last couple of days we've come across quite a number of tasty looking little quail! They don't fly to far when disturbed and I reckon even I could knock one down. Pity they are on commonwealth land

Ahh yeah...of course

I used to bump into them in the NT as well. They jump out of the grass and scare CRAP out of you. Came across about 20 just outside the base as I walked home one day. I reckon I could of thrown a cast net over them.
