It is one of our finest game birds, and its wariness, speed and dodging ability offer an exacting test for the .skill of the hunter. A striking char acteristic is the reaongpt drumming, most frequent in the spring mating season, but often heard at other times It is produced by rapid beat ing of the male bird's wings as he stands upon a log or other elevation, with his tail spread and his beauti ful ruff extended In the fall projections grow along the edges of the Grouse's toes which widen their tread and serve as snow fhoef The Grouse delight in snow und, though they roost in trees in th< summer, prefer to sleep under the snow in winter, and will fre quently plunge into deep snowbanks in e>eap< ptirSUitig enemies: The male may have several mates, but usually takes no part in making the nest or rearing the young. It is -aui'tluit lu- will sometimes come at tie- mother's call lu help her fight for the brood against a threatening enemy, and that he has been known to take charge of the little birds when the mother has been killed. Like the Bob-white, the Ruffed C? rouse can be multiplied by artifi cial propagation, and, in its natur al environment, increases rapidly jnder proper conservation.?N C. Bird Club 4 ?
