The grouse picture on recently seen of the MOU website is fantastic! I do believe that this is actually a Sharp-tailed Grouse and not a Ruffed Grouse based on shorter crest, facial pattern, tail shape, and white spotted wing coverts. This species I'm sure is more difficult to get a photo of so it does not diminish the photograph at all, great work! Not sure who to email about this information but more of an fyi. I could be wrong on the ID. Good Birding, Jason Caddy Minneapolis ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
