Re: Today in my garden I saw........

Garden Carpet- there can't be many people who've had a Quail in their garden. I've never seen one in UK , but heard them a few times.

First one I saw was in a park in Eilat when it flew past me. Wasn't sure what it was at first, but when someone said they had seen a Quail + I realised that's what it was- fortunately I saw it again on the ground. I've also seen them in Kazakhstan. Certainly a lot easier to hear (like Corncrake!) than see, so I'm green with envy at your sighting!
