I’ve enjoyed watching the Sage Grouse strut here in So. Central Utah, for the last dozen years.
I have developed a pretty strong itch to go spend a day or two watching Praire Chicken do there strutting activities and apparently it is very near primetime. Also, if the opportunity presents itself, either coming or going, I’d like to try and find a lek of Sharptail to observe as well.
In as much as Sage Grouse are extremely reliable as to their time and location for mating I am assuming the Sharptail and Praire Chickens are as well.
I’ve also got a bad case of cabin fever right now and I’m anxious to get out and see some country, so driving a 500-700 miles or so isn’t entirely out of the question. Closer would be better but my limited research would indicate I’m may need to travel that far.
If anyone knows of a specific lek location, for either of these two grouse and would be willing to share the location, I would be ever so grateful.
If anyone is interested in watching 50-60 Sage Grouse strutting, I would be more than happy to offer the same courtesy...... I fact I’d be happy to take you to one of two lek locations, a hour from my home in Glenwood, Utah.
Please PM me if would rather speak to me directly, so I can share a phone number.
Thank you.
