まだ眠いズアカカンムリウズラ Sleepy Gambel’s Quail


まだ5cmもないぐらいのズアカカンムリウズラのヒナです。裏庭で産まれたようです。 This is an itsy bitsy Gambel’s Quail chick. It’s less than two inches long. I think it was born in our backyard.

まだ上手く歩けないのに、食べ物探しの散歩に出かけました。 The quail family went out for a breakfast walk although chicks couldn’t walk well yet.

まだ朝早いので眠たそう。ちょっと歩いただけで眠り込んでしまいます。 The chicks look still sleepy as it’s still early morning. They walked a little but already fall a sleep.

そんなところで寝込んで大丈夫なのかなと心配していたら、お父さんも心配して近寄ってきました。 I was worrying about this one sleeping in such an open space. Even it’s father came over to wake him up.

こっちの子はお母さんに見守られています。 Mother was keeping an eye on this one.

パティオの上は流石にまずいよ。早く目を覚まして隠れた方がいいよ〜! Wait, that’s totally not a good place to sleep on the middle of the patio. Wake up~!

こっちの子たちも起きてね〜! You guys, too. Wake up now~!

と、早く安全な場所に避難するように急き立てられて芝生のジャングルを歩くヒナたちでした。 So the parents rushed the chicks to a safe place urging them through the jungle of grass.
