Ordinarily the Blue Grouse is difficult to find: it blends in with the forest floor, it likes conifer forests high in the mountains, and it rarely flushes until you nearly step on it (thus the nickname "Fool Hen"). When I heard of an easily-accessible family of Blue Grouse at Yosemite's Glacier Point I jumped at the opportunity: http://www.wildlightphoto.com/birds/tetraonidae/blgr02.html I'll be scanning several photos so rather than take up bandwidth I'll add them to http://www.wildlightphoto.com/birds/tetraonidae/blgrinfo.html as I scan them. Technical stuff (above photo): Leicaflex SL, 280mm f/4 APO-Telyt-R, Provia 400F, monopod/shoulder stock. Technical stuff (project): Leicaflex SL, Leicaflex SL2, Leica R8, Provia 400F, E100G, K25, 280mm f/4 APO-Telyt-R, monopod/shoulder stock.
