This little bird was in the desertariam at the Indy zoo.
I think the crown points more toward a Gamble's, but it's out of it's normal range so it's a tough call for me.
or a Gamble´s, yes
Looks a lot like a California quail
Possibly a Gamble's Quail, Callipepla gambelii
I feel its banded pitta...but not confirmed...
