Grouse & Ptarmigan · breed reference

A bird we haven't listed — the Asian tier (Chinese Grouse, Siberian Grouse, Black-billed Capercaillie, Caucasian Black Grouse) or a regional name for something above. The numbers here are middle-of-the-family defaults; record the real species in the flock's name or notes. AND CHECK TWO THINGS BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE, because the defaults on this row assume the worst of both: whether the bird is native where you live, which decides whether a state wildlife agency has to say yes first, and what it actually eats in winter — several members of this family cannot be kept alive on any feed you can buy.
