Photograph Notes: The heather is cut back to promote fresh shooting growth for the Grouse that are resident up here. I saw a few pairs, putting them up as I walked quietly along. A fave bird of mine, despite their tendency to make me jump when they rise close by, then smile as they call and whirr away. I could never shoot one. It would be most unsporting. Like Pheasant they have been bred to announce their imminent departure from cover with a distinct call, furiously whirring their tiny wings and flying low and straight they offer themselves up as plump little targets in a most obliging fashion - it seems akin to blasting flying guinea pigs or cartoon characters to me. The only Grouse I will finish off comes in a bottle.
