Grouse

Several years ago, a friend of mine had a grouse that would hang around him while he was deer hunting. And by hanging around him, I mean he would literally sit on a rail of his stand or sit on his gun barrel. The grouse would always show up when he hunted a certain stand. The pictures he sent me was unreal and they became good friends it seemed like.

About five years ago, give or take. We were bear hunting with hounds.

For those of you that have never done that think of any group type hound hunt. We were hunting a lease that most of us were paying on at that time.

One of the members lived very close to the lease and spent a lot of time in there. He would feed the very few grouse in there, they hung out in his feeding areas.

So one of the places was a larger parker area. We used that because if rough mountain ground and most of the guys were pulling trailers with SXS on them.

Three of the guys made it back to the parking area and were just hanging out. A grouse walks up to them. They are talking about it, one of the guys bends over, picks her up and puts her inside his jacket with its head sticking out like a puppy!!!

They did have pictures, I seen them! Quite the laugh.

Pennsylvania grouse are really rebounding in a nice way. My second passion when I'm not turkey hunting is running dogs for grouse and woodcock. We go quite a bit, after work for a few hours and for a full day on weekends. I've moved at minimum one bird per hunt on all but two hunts and have only been back to the same covert one time due to convenience and short time. Keep cutting trees!
