e Biologist Calls Winter The Weakest Link
l Describing the life history of
; the quail throughout the year,
-jthe biologist writes that the
-j number of quail that the land
1 can support, or the carrying ca
pacity, depends on the availa-:
-jbility of both food and cover, j
-j Suitable nesting cover is diffi
t cult to find early in the nest
■ mg season, he says, and many
nests are destroyed by predators. l
some quail begin nesting activi-i
ties before spring growth has
produced adequate greenery for
protective cover.
Hankla- recommends planting
patches of perennial legumes
such as sericea and shrub lespe
deza lor winter quail food, and

says that the Wildlife Commis
sion will furnish seeds and seed--
1 ins free of charge to interested j
landowners. He also suggests'
multiflora rose for protective
cover. Rose seedlings are avail
! able free from the Wildlife Com
mission. i
The biologist recommends that
farmers leave strips of ..corn,
soybeans and lespedeza unhar
i vested at edges of fields for ad- j
ditional late winter food.
And he recommends that land-!
owners refrain from burning j
hedgerows, open woodlands, and
other grass and weedy areas so)
quail will use these places for
nesting.
