Blue Grouse

The Blue Grouse ranges from Alaska to New Mexico, and inhabits many different habitat types.  The mating calls of the male Blue Grouse can be heard for many yards.  During the mating dance, the male fans its tail and spreads the feathers on its neck revealing a colorful patch of skin used to attract a female.
