Black grouse / Тетерев / Tetrao tetrix / Lyrurus tetrix

I hope from watching this short video that you will understand the reason why I get up at 2am in the morning and then sit in a cold hide for hour upon hour, in my opinion these are birds are not only stunning but also have very interesting behaviour. Please visit and click on the Black Grouse gallery to see many more stills pictures of these stunning birds.
