O.K. That is one for the books! I had a dead fence around the calf paddock one morning and went looking. There was a bobwhite quail holding on to the steel post with one foot and the hot wire with the other. It looked like too much of a stretch for him to reach from one to the other, but he'd managed. He was merrily blazing away when I found him.
