Actually these two ruffies are probably the first grouse I've shot in a few years...always seem to be too busy hunting moose or deer or goose/ducks to bother whackign some chickens :roll:
Id been deer hunting a couple times in the past few days and seen some birds so I decided to bring my ugly but accurate and inexpensive Savage 22 with me tonight.
Ended up chasing one around playing hide and seek before he turned into a ghost, then found four birds in a dry creek, pulled two out of there and chased the 3rd around before he escaped on me - twice!
looking forward to dinner tommorow 8-)

FANTASTIC pic's fella's. They show why they're so hard to spot if not standing on the road.
All they need to do is not move and they disappear/blend in with their surroundings.
NOW I'm hungry...
