Week 28 – Gray Partridge

This was the first good look I’ve really gotten at a Gray Partridge. Little did I know that Gray Partridge are a species that was introduced from Europe in the early 1900s. Unlike some other introduced species such as House Sparrow and European Starlings, Gray Partridge populations have stayed small and actually decreased in some areas.

I’m keeping this weeks post short as we’re heading out for a 3-day shoot for our new film Bluebird Man today. If you haven’t already, please consider backing our campaign on Kickstarter before July 31st! Thank you.
