I have never seen these birds like this before. It was, and they are, absolutely awesome. #birds #ukbirding #birdsseenin2026 #blackgrouse

Absolutely thrilled that my plan came together and I saw the Welsh Black Grouse Lekking, photos taken from the car. Set off at 1am to get in place for 6am. Last saw them some 10 - 15 years ago. #lekking #blackgrouse #birds

3 Black grouse having a stand-off during a dawn lek on a moorland road above Wharfedale. One of the grouse is standing tall to dominate the other two.
A black grouse nestled down on moorland rough ground in dawn light. The light is showing all the plumage, which is iridescent in the light.
Two Black Grouse facing off on a moorland road in the Yorkshire Dales during their morning lek. One grouse is side-on in profile and being approached by a grouse that is facing the camera with its display feathers out.
Took some bird snappers for some more Black Grouse antics early this morning. As per usual, 100m from the lek inside a vehicle and we left after the lek finished. Bitterly cold wind but the grouse aren't bothered! #birds #blackgrouse #yorkshirebirding #birdphotography @yorkshiredales.org.uk

Two black grouse face each other in battle during an early morning lek above Wensleydale, Yorkshire. We see the tail display feathers of the nearest bird and the open beak and wings of the bird behind it.
One of last week's Black Grouse images from waaaaay up above Wensleydale. A serious face-off during the dawn lek. #birds #blackgrouse #wildlifephotography #yorkshirewildlife

Male Black Grouse standing on a soil pile above Wensleydale in warm dawn sunlight.
Another from yesterday's dawn outing above Wensleydale. This one from when the lek was dispersing, so no display feathers, but a lovely warm light from the early sun on this male Black Grouse. Again, image taken from vehicle at distance with a long lens! #birds #blackgrouse #nikonphotography

Black Grouse male heading to the left on moorland above Wensleydale.
A pair of Black grouse males challenge each other in display on a lekking ground above Wensleydale.
#Wensleydale was full of mist after dawn this morning but before that, on the dale tops, it was glorious and the #BlackGrouse lek was in full swing. Note: parked well off the lekking ground before dawn and images taken with a big lens from the car. #birds #nikonschool

Watercolour painting of a black grouse (Lyrurus tetrix) in Valais (Switzerland).
.
Although the males have their bright red "eyebrow", I love the colour pattern of the females much more.
