Barred Buttonquail

Barred Buttonquail, female. I was hit by a downpour right after arriving at the Barred Buttonquail spot, but once the rain eased off she came out from the grass. She was a bit too close, so I encouraged her to move a little further away. ^^;

I wonder why Barred Buttonquail almost always seem to turn up wherever there's a flock of Eurasian Tree Sparrows in a field…
