Sage Grouse

Tammy and I headed up to Ely with the pups to try once again for the Nevada bird that has eluded me for 4 years. This adventure started 4 years ago after drawing a depredation Cow Elk tag. We saw them close to the road and I had no idea what the were. What they resembled to me were the Prarie Chickens that I had observed many years ago growing up in Muleshoe Texas. Further research yielded that they were Sage Grouse (Hens). Turns out there are Blue (Dusky & Sooty) Grouse in Nevada as well, but generally up in the mountains.
