Grouse and partridge frolic

In March, we in the middle band formed couples grouse. We must remember that we can go there mainly for the young birds. Old does not have to worry about finding people girlfriends. They are kept in pairs and in the winter months. Male and female are trying not to lose sight of each other and together roamed from one piece of wood to another. Migrations of these are small. Typically, a pair of grouse occupies a certain area. In the summer of this site fir or mixed forests. In the winter, along with broods they are moving closer to the river, in the alder or grove, where alder mixed with birch. Here they feed on alder catkins, buds, birch and other trees. But as soon as will thaw a little wild drifts in the woods and a whiff of spring, spruce grouse back in, and here you can hear the voice of Ryabets - a thin whistle. If grouse are "peak", it means began their married life. Beeping and a short gentle trill Riabets beckons his female. Once the female responded, he flies from the tree and ran to meet her. From time to time, it reiterates its call and response to repeated takes off and flies straight to her friend. If in his district, he will meet another male, at once fierce it drives. Before the female, he opens the fan tail and wings down to the ground, as do many chickens. In the spring time traveler, going to the forest, suddenly stopped, struck by strange sounds. They are more like a rattling of a frustrated musical instrument than the voice of living beings. Sometimes alternately two sounds are heard at different tones at regular intervals.
