Default Quail in the winter

I belong to a hunt club here in Virginia that's primary purpose of deer hunting so I cannot get our there and run my dogs until after the deer season. We see wild coveys of quail all the time during the earlier deer seasons in hedgerows and natural areas close to the edge of farm fields but it seems once it gets cold the quail are no longer in those areas. I have run those with my dogs the past couple of season and no signs of the quail that were seen earlier in the year. Am I hunting the wrong areas, do the quail move away from the field edges and get deeper into the woods or something for the winter? Anybody have any thoughts?
