Observation details
Two pairs seen, and one of those pairs heard calling in response to another, unseen pair. It's nice to notice the presence of multiple pairs, possibly indicative of decreasing hunting pressure. A few years ago, three quail species were fairly common here (this species, plus Ocellated Quail and Crested (Spot-bellied) Bobwhite). Then all three became scarce at this location, presumably due to hunting pressure. Hopefully all three bounce back to earlier levels.
