Tennessee Warbler and a Dusky Grouse moment

Friday, my friends and I went to look around Glacier National Park for fun. We drove up to where Avalanche Creek meets McDonald Creek, and believe it or not....I got to see a TENNESSEE WARBLER!!! It was singing a shortened version of its song, very similar to a Wilson's Warbler which I thought I was looking for!

This is Dan Casey's AMAZING digiscoped shot of the Tennessee at Tally Lake, but this is about the SAME view I had at the one in the park!


Now, several hours later, my friends and I drove up a back round in Big Mountain and we found a displaying DUSKY GROUSE! That was soooo coool to see him display and make that deep booming noise!!

What a great day of birds!!
