Bobwhite Quail are named for their call. You can find them foraging on the ground in flocks. They are adorably round.

"CHRISTMAS INTENSIFIES"

Are You Racist? 

"I had just finished my junior season at North Carolina and Coach Smith called around the NBA to see how high I’d be drafted if I came out. At the time, the 76ers told him they would take me with the second or third pick, depending upon which one they had. But as the weeks passed, Chicago started losing games and moving up the draft. Still, the whole thing came down to a coin flip for the No. 1 pick. The NBA didn’t have the draft lottery at the time, so a coin flip between the worst team from each conference decided the first pick. If Portland had won the flip, it was going to take Hakeem Olajuwon. I would have gone to Houston and Sam Bowie would have ended up in Chicago, which lost enough to pass Philadelphia. When Houston won the flip the Rockets took Hakeem and Portland went for Bowie. The funny thing is the Bulls had lost a coin flip in 1979 with the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers took Magic Johnson and the Bulls selected David Greenwood, who was still with the team when I arrived."
