On Sunday, we had all sorts of different kinds of birds in our backyard. Melissa got all sorts of pictures of the quail that we saw. She is doing a report on California right now and that is the state bird. She was VERY excited about that. We saw a bunch while we were in Arizona, but never got around to taking any pictures. These two birds sat on the rock and sunned for quite a while. They were so fun to watch! They looked like they were taking care of each other. Which brings up another question, do birds mate for life with one partner?

American Mourning Doves. Both males and females incubate and take care of the young and yes, they are monogamous.
