Good morning FAN Outdoors faithful @KFAN1003

Quail Fact Friday! That sharp, whistled "bob-WHITE!" that we all love to hear in spring and early summer is more than the beautiful sound of our namesake bird. Male bobwhites use their call to do two things: attract a mate and claim their territory. During the breeding season, these calls signal occupancy to other males, helping establish loose territories centered around nesting habitat. But bobwhites aren't rigidly territorial like some songbirds. Instead, their "claimed" space is flexible, overlapping at times, shifting with habitat quality, and tied closely to food, cover, and nesting conditions. In good habitat, you might hear multiple males calling, each advertising his presence. If you're hearing multiple males, it's a strong sign your habitat is working!

Helping farmers and ranchers achieve their operational goals while delivering benefits for wildlife habitat, natural resources, and rural communities is at the heart of PF & QF’s mission. We are proud of our long-standing partnership with @USDA_NRCS and we thank Chief Buckley for his leadership in serving America’s producers and working lands!

We've got Stan Tekiela and "Tackle" Terry Tuma lined up for tomorrow's edition of Saturday morning FAN Outdoors on @KFAN1003 with host "The Captain" Billy Hildebrand. We're live & local from 6 to 8am (central).

The connection between a bird dog and a hunter may be one of conservation’s most powerful forces. For many upland hunters, the journey begins with their first bird dog. For others, that dog is what keeps them connected to hunting, habitat conservation, and life outdoors. John Zeman joins the conversation to explain why bird dogs often serve as a gateway to upland hunting, conservation groups, and a lifelong connection to the outdoors.
