Saw this guy on our walk in the woods this morning. Pretty dark in there. Thanks for looking.

Not easy to get a clean shot of these guys, ever. Congratulations on two very nice, sharp, colorful photos.

Very cool, those woods look enchanting in the BG of the first. Nice shots working with the minimal light you had, look nice and natural.

Nice shots, I see many grouse at my parents forest but generally when they are flying away.

Yeah great stuff, especially considering the light and how hard it can be to get one out in the open.

I've found a few ring-necked pheasants and ruffed grouse's lately but can't get a clear shot.
