Grouse are still a regular sight in Øygarden and on Gullfjell.
This species is normally seen during winter and spring - partly due to
birding effort and partly due to the males being so much more obvious
during the spring.
They sometimes cross short stretches of sea to islands along the coast
e.g Hernar.

During the spring males can be quite showy, Øygarden, April
