Went out for a nice day birding in Michigan's Upper Peninsula yesterday. I was lucky enough to find the species I targeted. (Edited version later posted below.)

Sep 05, 2016 17:06 | #3 Very nice. I lived my first 27 years in Michigan and never saw a Spruce grouse. Lot's of Ruffs but no Spruce. Good stuff. 80D, 70D, Sigma 18-35 f1.8 DC HSM ART, 24-70 f2.8L, Sigma 150-600 f5-6.3 DG OS HSM C, 430 EX II, Induro AM24 w/3Pod H1, CT214 w/PHQ-1, and several cold beers.
