SCIENTIFIC NAME Colinus virginianus
RANGE Their range covers the southeastern quadrant of the United States from the Great Lakes and southern Minnesota east to New York State and southern Massachusetts, and extending west to southern Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado front-range foothills to 7,000 feet, and all but westernmost Texas.
LOCATION IN THE ZOO Birds of the World
COOL ANIMAL FACT Their call is one of the easiest to learn of all bird sounds. The two sharp, whistled notes really do sound like “bob-white!”—and the call carries a long distance in grassy fields or piney woods, so if bobwhite are around you will probably know it long before you see them.
