We were watching a covey of Scaled Quail when a second covey came by. A male from the first covey was keeping lookout from a low perch on a branch. A male from the second covey decided that the perch was indeed a great lookout spot and flew in uninvited. The first male seemed to disagree about there being room for two on the perch! These are fairly common birds, listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. They are also called Cottontops, referring to their white crest.
