Juvenile black grouse (Lyrurus tetrix)

While walking through a relatively quieter part of Bymarka, suddenly 4-5 grouses started flying at every direction (one adult and several chicks). They were very well camouflaged, which was apparent as I was trying to photograph this one which was sitting on a nearby tree and another 3 or 4 started flying from a couple meters next to me.
