Hi "Liggle Spuggy"
Did you ever call them that?
I did right up until i was 38!!
Seriously, loved the images and felt jealousy creeping over me. I have yet to see Black Grouse lekking. Would you mind telling where you saw them?
Much appreciated, i have read your blog for some time and always enjoy. Thanks again
John
