Spruce Grouse
hey Folks,
Here’s a male spruce grouse that I photographed a week or so ago. These birds are SO cool, and will completely bury themselves under the snow in the winter, blasting up from their hides in a frenzied eruption of snow, feathers and noise when you stroll by - and scaring the hiker immeasurably in the process.
I’ve not had any luck with photographing grouse in the park before, though I have photos from other places, so this one I was glad to catch.
Male spruce grouse, Wrangell - St. Elias National Park, Alaska.
Cheers
Carl
