Detalles de la observación
Active lek. Arrived at the lek location at 0633 and sunrise at 0649 on a frosty, 30-degree F, cloudless sky morning. The lek is about 160 feet from the observation area. Not too difficult to count visible birds with a number of rapid sweeps of the lek and the few at roost via use of binoculars. Those grouse perched in nearby leafless trees flew to the lek within the first 15-20 minutes of our arrival. Two-thirds of the birds present in the first hour left the lek at the same time and flew above or to either side of us in southerly directions. A few, about four to six, of those birds didn't fly far and returned to the lek. Those that remained were mostly male and gave an abundance of attention to display when a hen was present, though concentrated on the brief display challenges that occasionally led to short-lived altercations.
