Why Fescue is Bad for Quail and Why Natives Aren’t!

Colt Hamilton explains why a fescue field is not good for quail & turkeys. How a field of Diverse Natives can provide the structure, cover, and food that the young quail and turkeys need to have a chance at survival.

A diverse native grass pasture with native forbs & legumes can be close to the perfect habitat for these native birds.

Special Thanks to Jim Grace for letting us use his photo for the thumbnail!
