Here are 4 Gambel’s bobwhite covey flushes captured on my trip to New Mexico last weekend. The first three have two views as there were multiple cameras operating. Tucked away at the end, as bonus footage, is an awesome Mearn’s bobwhite covey flush from this week.
Covey flush #1 is Ken’s Four Bird Covey. In the video you can hear Ken tell his wife, Tammy, that there are four birds in the brush ahead. Turns out there were a few more than four. Neat footage.
Covey flush #2 is Cognac’s Crazy Covey. Ken’s GSP Cognac tracked this covey a bit before we got them cornered. When they flush they go every direction. This was a really fun covey rise.
Covey flush #3 is Ellie’s Arroyo Covey. Ellie found these birds in a flat beside a large arroyo and held them between us until we could arrive to enjoy some fun shooting. I really just like to type (and say) the word arroyo.
Covey flush #4 is The Unharmed Covey. Nary a shot was fired as this large covey flushed over the hill past Ken’s Saki.
Bonus Montezuma Quail flush really speaks for itself. It is breathtaking footage for those of you who have never had a chance to witness these birds in person. I love it!
