Quail (Aparo)
These are still kids actually

Quail
...the Yoruba call this aparo. Hahahahaha.... I remember I once used aparo as a symbolic bird of an angel in one of my poetic series titled My Beauty is my Doom (Part 1-5). But now that I've seen it myself, I may considering looking for another simple bird. Aparo is beautiful but not as innocent as the pigeon or beautiful as the peacock. I read in Exodus that God feed the Israelites with manner and quails in the wilderness. Well, I don't need to get to heaven before I get a glimpse of the historic bird. I have seen many of them maybe nothing less twenty myself today. Not kidding just excited with engrossing nature.
