Thank you, very much Cindy. It seems like they were about 1 & 1/2 inches of fluff only days ago. Smiles.

Just after I took these photos, I figured out that the male and female quail were going to leave their babies "Safe" under my corner rose bush! Even though the babies are big enough to fly, to some degree, I had to keep my kitty inside for the evening. This morning I saw the baby Quild fly, to keep up with "Mom and dad" on the fence.!
