Today I almost stepped on a batch of tiny baby grouse chicks. They must have hatched like 2 days ago they were so small and as they fled in terror of my Godzilla body they were barely staying on their feet just tumbling away frantically as mom called and hissed at me.
It took everything I had not to take a step and snatch up one of the slower ones. Such good camo too once they stopped peeping and running/rolling I couldn't see any of them. Had to tip toe out of there for fear I'd step on one.
Best day.
