A bobwhite quail strides across open ground, mid-step, its finely patterned plumage and crisp facial markings set against a warm, earthen backdrop. One foot lifts, the other plants, and the whole bird leans forward with purposeful momentum.
Shaped in the studio with softly textured, antique-toned edges, the image has the feel of a vintage naturalist's plate brought gently to life. It celebrates the brisk, determined character of this small ground bird, always on the move and entirely sure of where it's going.
