And don't overlook that farmers plant a lot more fescue these days, good cattle fodder but hard on quail birds. Growing up around brome/red top/timothy and clover we had tons of quail. Fields of fescue don't have 'em - the chicks can't find their way thru the clumps of fescue is what I heard, but all I know is 'long time ago good, now no good'
