Here's a short video I found on Facebook. It's about the research being done by the Rolling Plains Quail Research Ranch in West Texas.

I found the video saddening and encouraging at the same time. I can't help but to think we are fighting a losing battle. I hope I'm wrong.

Wildlife and fisheries was collecting wild quail heads killed in Louisiana in the 2013-2014 year to help determine what kind infestation there was in Louisiana with the eye worms. I do not know what information that study produced...

While the bobwhite numbers are down, I've never seen as many blue quail running around as I have this year in south Texas. If majority of them can survive the summer, it should be an awesome quail year down there.

Tall Timbers is another quail research group worth following on Facebook.
