Eight Little Chicks - Ring Neck Pheasants

I don't see the chicks very often (as in "never"). Nice of them to hang out in clear sight enough to film. They obviously were a little confused at the giant GMC rolling up ... and thank God their motion caught my eye. Reminder note to self: must go extra slow as that corridor in the grass draws out a lot of smaller wildlife. A couple weeks ago I found a flat toad with no recall of seeing it. I COUNT EIGHT. Hints if can't see all (to my eyes anyway):
1. One sits to the lower right and is passed by in frame as it zooms in.
2. With thumbnail as guide: the last of 4 clear birds in center is looking at camera. Another is further back behind a lighter dome of dandelion fluff, almost totally hidden by grass except for the top of its head and black spot of eye.
