This was fun to run into on a hike, a whole troop of a male, female, and a bunch of juveniles.

Other birds use the borb technique when it’s cold, but the quail is a borb for just the love of the game 😂

But only the male. His looks and his borbableness make him look so vain.

Yea this is so true, they just love to stand on top of wooden fences and show off 😂

My Quaker is going through tail regrowth, and he's looking a lot like this CQ rn.

😂 Tailless birds always look pretty odd. I spotted it his song sparrow lacking its tail a little while back (I think it managed to survive a run-in with a Cooper’s hawk 😱)

Lucky birb. A tail is a small price to pay.

Indeed! A little time and it’ll be back to normal

They are peak borb. Really makes you appreciate how little birds are inside those feathers. I need this breakdown of more birds

Oh yes, owls are just feathers! Be interesting to see others. Amazing really.
