Cotton Top Quail Sticker

Blue Quail don’t play fair. They call them “Cotton Tops” for that white crest, but they should call them “track stars” for the way they’ll outrun a dog across the desert floor. To bag a Scaled Quail, you need a dog that can relocate with precision and a hunter who isn’t afraid to cover miles of prickly pear and greasewood. It’s a game of chess played in the heat of the high desert.
