SAQF members, other volunteers and USFWS planted 96 quail friendly shrubs at Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge.
These plants needs to be watered once or twice a week to establish a good start prior to monsoon. The refuge is planning to do this on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting 2 May. Even an hour or so on one day will help.
We saw both Gambels and Masked Bobwhite in the area when we were out planting.
