The Gambel's quail fits this bill too ... http://www.flymphforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2739

Lovely, both of them. Very clean and crisp, both the materials and the tie.
Thanks for posting.

Bill, I tried to find this post. I remembered you had a quail pattern that was a beautiful substitute for Waterhen. In the hands of a pro it comes off just right. In my effort to slim down my tying materials...I am going to resist going straight on a search for a Gamgel's Quail...but probably not for long.

For the record, I am thrilled with the California Quail in some subsequent ties. Highly recommended.

Rodger, thank you.

Thanks, Valley Quail. Never heard of that, or seen it marketed as such. Good to know though. I have seen Gambel Quail for sale, and I wanted some, but it was going for too much at the time. Every time I bid on a California Quail, I lose...lol. I guess there are no bird hunters here?

William - Wait 'til you see my Scaled Quail skin at Roscoe... I bet you will need one of them too...

OK you guys are such teases!

Vicki, they are rubbing it on awful thick aren't they? Nah Nah Nah Nah Nah....lol. That is okay. I have a Japanese Quail skin.

Kelly - LOL!!! You go girl!

Well I have.... what do I have? Hmmmmm....... a whole lot of.....

I know. A Golden pheasant skin. Is that good? It's beautiful!!

Well I just scored two new Pukeko skins yesterday, have a GP and one on the hoof that I have ready access to..... he lives with some neat quail as well.
