Striking colors, I think the Ruffled Grouse in Minn. are more dull than that.

Nice photo. It look startled by the picture. The camera must have been really close.

Now that's what I call a tame grouse. We had the chance to photograph a tame Spruce Grouse this week, but it wouldn't come to purposefully investigate our gear like here! Great colors.
