Actually the chicks fled first. Mom stayed until she saw that they flew. Then I heard the whining puppy sound so maybe that is a grouse call for "come back chicks" or "hey, watch where you're going" or similar. The western grouse on the prairie used to scare the bejeezus out of me. I'd be walking along and they wouldn't fly until you almost stepped on them. Happened multiple times (I spent two summers in Montana doing Paleo field work).middle.professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02370737843957507859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34544002.post-42373925535009232362010-06-12T14:28:53.168-04:002010-06-12T14:28:53.168-04:00That's the sound grouse's make to lure you...That's the sound grouse's make to lure you in and then ATTACK!!
