In Explore August 19, 2009, #369. Fool-On-The-Hill has confirmed the identity of this bird, but suggested that the Blue Grouse has now been separated into two species, the Dusky Grouse and Sooty Grouse. Thanks, friend. These birds seem very unafraid of humans and this one stood motionless at the side of road and allowed us to walk to within a few feet of it. This photo was taken by my wife.
