Today I was guiding some folks from Sierra Vista, Arizona. We found a =
group of 11 Spruce Grouse at the 2 mile mark north of Sand River on Lake =
Co. Rd 2. We also found a single female Spruce Grouse .01 miles north of =
the Sand River On Lake Co. Rd 2. I will post the rest of my 2 day trip =
on my web site along with some photos of the grouse and owls. I thought =
I get the word out this hard to find grouse. We found the Spruce Grouse =
at 7:45 and watched them till 8:00am. While watching them a truck =
noticed the grouse and sped to see if he could hit one and drove at them =
in front of us! The grouse scattered but none were hit by cars.=20
You have to wonder with that sort of behavior by a very small minority =
people, try to hit Great Grey Owls as well when they soar over a road. I =
got second hand reports that there have been at least 20+ Great Grey =
Owls that were found along road sides hit by cars.=20
