Very nice, Jeff. One thing about these guys is that they are generally in the deepest, darkest, of woods.

Amazing detail Jeff. You can really see all the patterns in the feathers so clearly.

Pardon me while I turn green with envy, Jeff. First you taunted us with your Pine Martens, and now a Spruce Grouse. Meanwhile, I spent all kinds of time in Algonquin while it was -27 C, and saw neither! Harrumph! ;) Wonderful shot!
