[nysbirds-l] Ruffed Grouse

Thanks to some diplomatic e mails I received, I believe that I was mistaken when I reported seeing Ruffed Grouse at EPCOT, Riverhead, Long Island. Next time I will either have a picture or another person to verify my sighting. Sorry if I caused some one to go there to try to see this.

[nysbirds-l] ruffed grouse at epcot Riverhead airield

Today, about 4:30 PM, while driving on the North side of the Eastern Riverhead Air field, I was surprised to disturb two Ruffed Grouse and a Turkey in the heavy grass about 10 feet away from me. I think that this is only the second time I have seen any Grouse on Long Island. Andy
