          This morning at about quarter after eight my dad and I found a
female spruce grouse about a mile down from the Sand River on lake
county road 2.  Less than thirty seconds after we spotted it a logging
truck came lumbering down the road and the bird flew back into the thick
balsams.  About five minutes later it came back out and we were able to
view it nicely as it sat on the road and ate the grit of the side.  We
also sighted some grey jays along the way and I even fed one from my
hand.
