Three Rivers Presents "California Valley Quail," June 18

California Quail - Callipepla californica
Our Three Rivers Branch Library will be hosting its June community program, "California Valley Quail: Devoted Fathers, Brood Patches, Talking Eggs and Their Mortal Enemy the Coopers Hawk," on Thursday June 18th at 6:30pm.

Carol Clum will bring photographs of adult female and male quail, two males fights, quail eggs, newly hatched chicks and a brood patch on a female. She will describe their life cycle, feeding habits, nesting environments and their unique calls. The effect of our current drought on the quail will also be discussed.
