Happy Anniversary !! Ahhhh the familiar sound of a bell 🔔 ringing on a labs neck as he bounces around the woods , great retrieving by Cutter they definitely saves a lot of looking time when you shoot them in the brush, , he got lots of practice I never had that much luck out with Tucker lol . Loves the Ruff Grouse , just did a video on how I cooked one and a funny story how I end up getting it or the story before I got it lol. Cutter sitting between you eating your lunch on the ride ....waiting for a possible treat looks awful familiar lol. That's a neat little heater , I could see that be good in my hot tent winter camping with Tucker we use the wood stove but always goes out and impossible to keep him covered up 😅. Great video guys lovely outing and lots of Grouse for the fridge minus the delicious meal you cooked up in the end. Hope you have an awesome week guys
When you say you have seven with five laid out on the tailgate and two in the cooler, it appears to be all Spruce grouse, yet the second closest to the camera is harder to tell, wheter it is a female Spruce or a Ruffed. There are definitely four male Spruce. The closest bird to the camera is most assuredly a female Spruce, and the second furthest from the camera is very likely a female Spruce.
That first Grouse you showed and called a Spruce, then corrected by screen edit as a “Roughed” (Ruffed) appears to be a female Spruce. When the first four are laid out on the tailgate, the furthest left is a female Spruce, as the neck banding makes clear, the two on the right are male Spruce, and the other is likely a female Ruffed grouse given the ruffed neck plumage, yet without the tail seen it isn’t a given on species and with the tail not a given on gender, per se. Nice trip!
Nice grouse hunting trip ye had. Done good with it. Happy Anniversary to both of you. Great video.

@@tuckerandi we will definitely check out your grouse video. Its always fun to see what other people experience in other provinces.
@@manitoulin-offgrid2317 one thing the grouse are much less plentiful here in my parts lol.
Happy anniversary, I think the large dark meat breast is the sharp tail.
@@Yukontom thanks. We think so too.

Wait.... I was wrong. Jeff and I have been married for 37 years not 34. Time sure flies when you're having fun. ❤
Well done with very few pellets in the breasts! And, where is the footage of all the birds getting harvested…?😢😅
as you know, things happen pretty fast out in the field. Sometimes we prefer to enjoy the hunt without worrying about getting it on film.

Nice Trumpeters!
Yes, I realized my mistake after I had the video finished. I still cringe every time I think about it. A silly mistake on the internet for eternity.
You shot 6 grouse and aren’t eating them…?
Trust me, we are eating them. 😋
