He looked like a quail from here

This is turning out to be an interesting day. The northeast got over two feet of snow, I heard they've dubbed an American snowboarder "The Flying Tomato" (which is awesome) and then I find out that Dick Cheney wounded a friend while quail hunting. It's not every day that the Vice President shoots somebody. We should all take note of this momentous occasion.

How old is the Flying Tomato?

I am so curious to hear how that shooting incident happened. This is why it's a good thing I don't hunt. I'd probably be accidentally shooting friends left and right.

Don't quail spend most of their time on the ground? I might be wrong, but I didn't think they flew that much... which begs the question, how do you accidentally shoot someone in the face when you are supposed to be pointing at the ground?

Oooh, he shot him in the face? Ouch! A teacher told me that you can flush quail out of where they're hanging out on the ground and they'll fly up, but that still doesn't explain how Cheney didn't see this guy if he was between the quail and the end of his shotgun.
