There is an unusual little bird in the garden this morning (Central Auckland).
It must be young - has very yellow feet. Seems about the size of a full grown sparrow.
Seems unable to fly - might be quite young?

No idea, but it reminds me of a quail. With Pukeko feet.

Yep - Its a quail.
While its very small, it just made a 'Chicago' call (that's what the call sounds like).
Wonder how the poor wee thing got here and how long before a bloody cat takes it out!

Chicago gave me the blues more than it jazzed me up.

It's the only musical I have ever enjoyed hearing.

Oh, I was thinking of the city, and sitting in one of the blues clubs.
