In addition to the Montezuma Quail, there were hundreds of butterflies. You could put your finger in front of one and let him walk onto your finger. In the first photo you'll see Christine with a butterfly on her shoulder. There probably were other species, but I did get photos of seven different kinds of butterflies.
