George,
Those quail were taken in Michigan in the Highland Hills area. I was acting gunner for the Fort Detroit Wirshair Club field trials. The first picture is a woodcock I took in Lapeer. So far, all the other birds i've taken were with my "meat" gun, a 12 ga. Browning BSS-SL. I'm going to start giving the Merkels "their day afield" this year.
