<h2>Nebraska Uplands</h2>Veiled by soft morning sunlight and native prairie grass,"Yeti" a German shorthaired pointer owned by PF & QF Education and Outreach Program Manager Marissa Jensen, locks up on birds somewhere in the Nebraska uplands. Jensen says, "I love this little dog, more than I can put into words. She's full of grit and determination, without losing her head or her heart. If I could have 5,000 Yeti's in a lifetime, it still wouldn't be enough. But then again, there's really only one Yeti, and she will always be more than enough."

<h2>West Point, Mississippi </h2>Mississippi State University grad student Olivia Lappin sent in this awesome photo of her holding a radio-collared bobwhite quail while doing field research. Olivia says she is researching bobwhite quail for her master's degree.<br /> <br /> She says, "I am researching bobwhite for my Masters degree at Mississippi State. This research allows me to capture quail through various capture methods and attach bands and radio collars to each bird. Attaching radio collars allows myself and my technicians to track the birds locations each day to keep up with resource use, mortality, and nesting! This is one of my favorite photos of a male who we recaptured during a mist netting attempt!"
