I have seen normal grouse but not the prairie chicken grouse. I believe they are on Wisconsin’s Threatened List still.

Whats your favorite owl

Snowy owl, definitely.
Barn-owls are cute.
Shriek owls are annoying at night.

I do love hearing the great horned owl just not 2 of them at night, one on each side of the bedroom.

I had my 2 year old niece over and we were watching all the birds in the birdfeeder. I pointed out what each one was. When I got to the chickadee, I told her that is a chickadee dee dee dee dee (like their call) and she responded with chicken-dee dee dee dee
