Sighting surveys for bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) broods is conducted annually each summer. The quail brood survey usually is conducted in conjunction with the summer turkey brood survey. Past survey cooperators and additional potential cooperators were provided with data forms and requested to record sightings of turkeys and quail during the scheduled period. Cooperators included, but were not limited to, SCDNR Conservation Officers and Wildlife Section staff, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) staff, foresters, and plantation managers.
