was at "something" unfamiliar!!&&**%% what an idiot, as soon as I read the
reference to it, I shook my head, I'm 50 in two years, does this have
something to do with it? Lol

Hi Martyn;
"Lek" is a display grounds where male grouse strut and sing their stuff to
the females. Every time there is a match they go off in the bushes (but not
necessarily) to consummate their love. They are found in grasslands and
boreal forest all around the northern hemisphere including Scotland , where
I think you hail from? we are hoping to visit one near Inuvik in the
Northwest Territories this year at latitiude 67' and believed to be the mos=
t
northerly one in the world. Unfortuneately I think we will be a little late
for good recordings of the Sharp-tailed Grouse.
