On our way back from Pigeon Forge today, I decided to  turn off of Wears 
Valley Road onto Walden's Creek Road. This road will finally  come out just 
below 
Walland School. Probably about five miles before reaching  the school, I 
spotted a Ruffed Grouse standing on the side of the road. I  stopped the car 
and 
immediately whipped out the car binocs to get a good  view. Since the road is 
not heavily travelled, I sat there for about four  minutes. As I slowly moved 
the car, the bird walked across the road. I was able  to get almost up to it, 
before it went down in a ravine on the creek side. What  was so funny, was that 
less than five minutes before coming upon the grouse, I  had told Mom to keep 
her eyes peeled that we might see a grouse or wild turkey  through here, and 
sure enough we did!
