The distinctive drumming of the ruffed grouse is music to the ears of avid bird hunters and wildlife enthusiasts alike. It is, however, a sound heard in fewer and fewer locations as suburban sprawl, expanding agriculture and commercial development rob this elusive game bird of habitat. As man builds to accommodate the expansion of his own race, the habitat of the ruffed grouse, American woodcock and other forest wildlife is seriously threatened.
Ruffed grouse are considered a “bell weather species” that reflects the overall health of the environment. We are searching for ways to assist the grouse, primarily by improving habitat.
