Wood-grouse hunting. Wood-grouses start leking when the snow begins to melt and finish when the first leaves appear. The birds come to lek in the evening and sit on the trees, mainly on pines. Wood-grouses start singing before dawn. Their songs can be heard in 200-300m. While singing the cock loses his sense of hearing for some seconds and lets the hunter get closer.
