    There’s a bunch of them hanging out near the lighthouse on the end of Anglesey recently.

    Are you sure it isn't just painted?

    Ah dammit you got me. Just don't tell the police okay? I got a bit drunk and painted five of these guys over the weekend and was hoping they'd breed to make more but apparently it doesnt work like that.....

    See the really big feet and the long beaks?

    Today I almost stepped on a batch of tiny baby grouse chicks. They must have hatched like 2 days ago they were so small and as they fled in terror of my Godzilla body they were barely staying on their feet just tumbling away frantically as mom called and hissed at me.

    It took everything I had not to take a step and snatch up one of the slower ones. Such good camo too once they stopped peeping and running/rolling I couldn't see any of them. Had to tip toe out of there for fear I'd step on one.

    Best day.
