Banded Quail

  • ... that the Banded Quail is a shy bird which seldom strays far from cover?

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self nominated at 06:14, 8 October 2013 (UTC). 16px

  • The article meets most of the criteria, but is barely long enough, being only 1550 characters with the section titles and TOC. It needs a little more said. How about including a recipe? (No! ignore my last!)
  • It is neutral, has adequate citation, cites appropriate sources and doesn't seem to have any other problems.
  • The hook is appropriate to the subject.

The length was 1,675 bytes which exceeds the 1,500 required for DYK. I would have made the article longer but I was short of material. I have now found that the Cornell Lab of Ornithology has a "Life history" page so I have added extra information. The page size now is 2,215 bytes. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:15, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
Comment: the article is ready to go. However, having added new facts, would you consider a different DYK, based on the tendency of the birds to fly in different directions, to confuse predators?
