Colorado hummingbirds, ptarmigan, chukar, rosy finches, greater prairie chickens, and more. Be sure to also see our Ducks gallery and Raptors gallery for more birds.
"Prairie Dancer"
When the male prairie chicken begins his display, he starts by stomping his feet on the ground in a rapid dance. As I was observing this, I was reminded of the Native American pow wow dancers.
Then the bird struts and lowers his head as he inflates the orange air sacs on his neck, making a "booming" sound.
This image is sized for printing ideally at 8 x 10" or smaller.
