Trail cam pics

Finally got my trail cam positioned where I can catch the male grouse drumming. Here are a few of the 140+ pics that I got. Lived on this property for 15 years and have looked high and low for a drumming log, finally found one this year. One pic looks like he got tired of all that drumming and laid down for a nap.

Ya got 'im. In the days of 35mm film and long before trail cams, a drumming grouse was a capture I always wanted but never had the patience for.

Man I love grouse hunting. It's so much fun up north.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ― Samuel Adams

When we were up in the BWCA last year I was chasing around one that was drumming trying to watch him. I saw him, a really big bird, but never while he was drumming.
