This is a watercolour by Duncan Cooper that shows quail shooting at Jones' Hill at Challicum, a sheep run west of Ballarat in western Victoria. It depicts two men with shotguns and two hunting dogs, which may be pointers, crossing a low plateau. The man in front has taken aim and appears to have just discharged his rifle. The watercolour, which measures 12.6 cm x 19.1 cm, comes from a field album that Cooper called 'The Challicum Sketch Book'.
