Capercaille is one of those "must see one day" birds for me. Cool bird, great photos.

This male did hunt me down....we did hear it in the woods....so we did walk about 50 meters...and then I can hear him like 5 meters infront of me "baam" and I run for my life......he was mad and horny at the same time......I did run up for an hill and my mate was laughing so hard......to bad I did not get it on film. Hope you will come over here to see this nice bird.
