Great Grouse Video


Sharp-tailed Grouse Lek in Snow (HD) from Dawson Dunning on Vimeo.

This is a great video showing Sharp-tailed Grouse booming.  I often show videos of Lesser Prairie Chickens booming in our programs and ask the students, "where do you think this bird is found?"  Nine times out of ten they respond "Africa" and then are shocked to find out that these birds can be found in Oklahoma.  "Not all animals with interesting displays and behaviors are found on other continents," I have to tell them. I guess it is a matter of realizing what you've got while you've still got it.
