Brown Quail at Kata Tjuta October 17

Hello Everyone-

I forgot one bird I thought I should have mentioned in my previous report- I had a Brown Quail on the Valley of the Winds trail, at Kata Tjuta where it begins the circular portion. I thought it was going to be a Stubble Quail, but it was mostly dark brown, strongly barred underneath (not streaked) and ran with it’s neck outstreatched. It isn’t shown on the range maps I have access to, so am not sure how often it occurs at Kata Tjuta.

Thanks, Alan
