Went for a hike, found a few grouse!

The family went for a hike on the Upper Dungeness and we saw a few birds.  Always good to see some chicks!

There was an image of a chick being held, I removed it, as to stop the comments about it, thinking back on it I know it was not best for the animal, I wanted to show my daughter, but I realize now that there are better ways.  I enjoy this site because members keep other members respectful of nature around them and I know I will not be doing that again.  Snapping a photo will do until my daughter can spot them better on her own.

I hope you released that grouse chick.
One should never pick up a chick or a fawn or any small wildlife.

Don't think you want to touch them as their mother will dis own them

Thanks for sharing, look is like quality family time. Teach them right so they can pass it along too... Great pics.
