While I was hiking, I was fortunate enough to come across this good looking bird. I had a few ideas what it could be and because of a couple good librarians, the mystery was solved. Of course, we have wonderful bird identification books in the Flathead County Library.
So, what kind of bird is it? Comment away and we'll unveil the answer next week.
Blue Grouse is the winner, to avoid copyright issues, I'll not post pics but you can do a Google Image search and find some great shots...

Haven't a clue!
A dodo??
I'm DYING to know...when are you going to tell us the answer?????
a ruffed grouse would be my guess.
Blue Grouse is the official answer!
Do we get points for plain 'ol grouse???? I mean, how specific can we be? And what do we grouse-guessers win?
Hear ye, hear ye all those that said grouse- you win free trips to the library for life, bird guide books, Montana DVD's and a special gift. Please see Brett for the gift!
