And what’s the most tasteful way to display your trophies.

Don’t know, but you’re gonna end up with a wall of beavers.

There’s a community in town where the streets are all named after quail.

There is the occasional extra word: ridge, hunter, silver are most of them.

So: Silver Quail. Silver Ridge. Quail Hunter. Hunter Ridge. Chukar – that’s a word for quail. Thornridge. Mountain Quail. Quail Meadow. Gambel’s Quail. Meadow Vale. Desert Quail. Springer – hah! Quail Valley. Button Quail. Golden Quail. Stubble Quail. Quail Ridge. Quailfield. Blue Quail. Quail Creek. Quail Cove. Quail Field. Quail Park.

I hate that place. I get so damn lost.

No, I do not live in [Quail, TX](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quail,_Texas). And yes, the word ‘quail’ no longer looks like a word.

All of our communities are like that, **Ninja**. I live in Huntington Hills (and we do actually have hills!), and every street is Huntsomething.
