Photographs > Birds of Southern Arizona - Trip July 2012 > Montezuma Quail (Cyrtonyx montezumae)

This is an awful photo, but I have included it because everyone we met said we would be really lucky to see one, we did but only as a pair scuttled up a bank as we drove up Madera Canyon, by the time I had stopped the car and picked up the camera this is all I could get. The driver behind me had a bit of a shock as well.
