Red Grouse
The Red Grouse is a medium-sized bird native to the moorlands of the British Isles. It has a distinctive reddish-brown plumage, which helps it blend into its heather habitat. This bird is known for its unique call and is a popular game species, often hunted during the shooting season.
Red Grouse primarily feed on heather, grasses, and other vegetation. They are well-adapted to their environment, with strong legs for running and a short tail for maneuverability. Their population is influenced by habitat management and the presence of predators, making conservation efforts important for their survival.
