Adam, thanks for the link. The quail problem in the south is like the one here for pheasants, used to be plentiful in the 70's and early 80's, now it is just a memory.

I remember hunting quail when I lived in northern New Jersey and my friend and I would travel to southern New Jersey for some quail hunting, always found some but that was in the late 60's and early 70's. A shame, both were great birds to hunt, but the quail was a more pleasant type of hunt.

I hope that Georgia can do something to bring them back. They have been trying here to bring back pheasants that they got from South Dakota. It has worked in one spot but will never be the same as it was. It is all about habitat.
