Observation details
Checklist location has been moved to protect grouse territory from hunters. Female. Large, heavy grouse flushed and landed 30 feet up a ponderosa, where it watched me as I photographed it and crept around trying to get a clear view. Thick, stocky, feathered legs. Blue-grey color overall. Scaly belly and throat, which camouflage well with tree bark. Blue band on tail tip. Slight crest. Habitat: a sparse stand of young and medium-age ponderosa.
