These are such strange and fascinating birds. Pretty cool to watch them hooting away!

Very well done.  The grouse formerly known as Blue.

What you couldn't get him to walk with his tail feathers level?  Should have gave him a level before you told him to model for you! Nice shooting, prefer the first two over the third.
