They ran across the trails
chasing the quarried quails
their peppered colored bellies,
wings feathered with flightless
quills, she scurries to the sheltered
bevy covered by the briery thorns
keeping the hunters at barbed
lengths way those clever quails.

Nicely done Mike.
Images really stand out but what's for lunch?
