Thanks.  I had about 5 of them in the grass.  I'll get more pics up when I can get back at it.

I know I am thinking "Chiken Dinner"   :EAT: :EAT: :EAT:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Wonderful images, Doug! 
That one looks like a good candidate for the "In the Background" thread. 
Grouse are one of my favorite subjects and you've captured them excellently.

Bone, those close-up head shots are awesome.  Great reference for us bird Taxidermists.  You and Tom sure know how to take those wildlife photo's! ;)  I sure wish I had a ounce of the talent that you guy's have.  Thanks for sharing the pic's.  John

Good pictures Bone. Its amazing how clear yours are. Here are a couple I took on a hike into the Alpine Lakes. She had five poults with her but I couldnt get any good shots with them as a group. Lots of grouse in the woods this year though or atleast it seems.

I really like that last one Crowns.  Very nice setting for her portrait.  Great colors and texture and her eye is sharp.
