There are still a few places that have a reasonable population of wild birds. I have been hearing "bob-white"ing for about 2 weeks but the coveys aren't totally broken up yet. There is a large area of wild bird plantations around Union Springs with some places carrying around a bird per acre as well as places in south Autauga county and Dallas county. We have developed a few places from quail being virtually non-existent to close to a bird per acre. Its primarily about habitat but predator control and feeding is also very important. BTW, lowering the bag limit would do NOTHING for quail in Alabama. Lots of good info here (I used to work here for about 10 years):
