The Bobwhite is a small, ground-dwelling bird native to North America. It is known for its distinctive call, which sounds like "bob-white," and its mottled brown and white plumage that provides excellent camouflage in grasslands and fields. Adult Bobwhites typically measure about 9 to 10 inches in length and weigh around 5 to 6 ounces.
Bobwhites are social birds that often form coveys, or small groups, for foraging and protection. They primarily feed on seeds, insects, and berries. Their habitat includes open woodlands, grasslands, and agricultural areas, making them a common sight in rural landscapes across the United States.
