Last Year’s Winter Cut Quail Numbers Across February to March
Wildlife biologist Robert Wells explains the 1979 quail losses tied to over 50 days of deep snow and bitter cold. Birds in good cover with food survived longer. those nesting failed or renesting was rare, shrinking hatch times and populations. He notes energy needs surge in extreme cold, forcing frequent feeding and fat use, with survival hinging on weather breaks and food availability. If the 1980 winter is milder, quail should rebound as birds spread to better habitats and predation drops, potentially triggering a population surge after renewed breeding.
