So this was a nice surprise, I saw an odd mass sitting on our back patio to what appeared to be feathers. At first I thought it was a deceased bird but then it started to move, turned out to be a group of quail chicks huddled up under the shade! I grabbed my camera and slowly opened the sliding door to grab a shot before they scurried off with the parents. I love spontaneous nature photos~
