I heard this sound while camping. The noise was so low it was almost inaudible. The sound seemed to be coming from the ground and I thought it was some type of seismic event. I never would have suspected it was bird! Awesome footage! and thanks for solving this mystery
Lol for years I had no idea what animal was making this sound, I too thought it was coming from the ground whenever I heard it in the woods. Just a bird 😂 love that the mystery is solved now
Yeah dude scares the hell out of me makes me think it was an american indian rising from the grave to play its drum cause i have heard alot of stories about indian graves near camp sites attacking campers.
Heard this in the woods at dusk and it was so deep that it felt like a pressure on my eardrums instead of an actual noise. Spooky and beautiful! Thanks for uploading, now i know for sure what I heard
Yeah I just heard it a few times at work I do conservation stuff and I knew it was a bird from my ecology class but the sound more felt like it was my heartbeat doing weird impossible patterns
First time I heard it out in the woods here, I thought "why does some guy keep trying to start his Harley over and over?". I figured it out after a bit. Flushed 4 of them out hiking this afternoon. The first one of the day always gets the heart racing a bit!
i was hunting in some over populated bear country, griz and blackies . walking out at last light where blue is black and its hard to make out shapes in the trees. thats when a grouse jumped and beat its wings so loud i thought it was a bear roaring and as fast at the happened it hit me in the chest. i screamed like a girl and no one ever let me live it down in camp hahhaha they sure do get the heart a racing when they do that.
All this time (a few years now) I felt so sorry for my neighbour trying to start up his old lawnmower. I wanted to go over many times to help him fix it but now I know exactly what I've been hearing way back in the forest. Thanks man
Could people thinking Sasquatch tree-thumping is actually the grouse, at least the slow beats? Many noises in the forest could be attributed to 'normal' animals, esp in the dead of night where everything seems amplified. The screech owl for instance has an immense scream that people might think it something 'unnatural' or a dying woman. Not to cast aspersions on the reality of Bigfoot (there's something out there), but on many occasions it is likely mistaken identity.
I’m amazed this is a bird. When you hear it in the woods it has such a deep base sound. It feels like it’s coming from the ground. Magnificent! Thank you!
God bless and I have to say “What An Amazing God that we served”.His Most Wonderful , Spenderous Creation Of All Time!What A Wonderful God That He Is? ❤
After moving to Maine and hearing this for the first time, I thought one of my farmer neighbors was trying to start some kind of spring time farming machine, but it kept repeating. I got suspicious, did some Internet searching, and ended up at this video which is EXACTLY the sound I was hearing. Thanks!
I've taken three hikes in the woods over the last couple of weeks and keep hearing this noise. Today I was with my wife and stopped specifically to listen for it. We heard it again, so I figured I needed to find out what it was. Thanks for the video.
Incredible footage!!! I got to experience this from 50ft away when I was a teenager turkey hunting in the southern appalachians. For over a half hour I remained frozen against an oak tree while he displayed and drummed. I thank God for one of the most moving experiences I have ever had in the outdoors. Truly the King of the Upland Birds, with an absolutely amazing life cycle and habits. It saddens me that their populations have collapsed where I live. Thank you for sharing your art with us!
My dad and I hear this everywhere we hike. Could never figure out what it was, until I was determined to figure it out. Now I know! It's such a low sound and hard to describe. So cool though!
I heard these guys throughout my AT thru hike. Took me a couple of months in before someone told me what it was. Prior to, I thought it might be the stress of a bending tree. Thanks for posting.
In 2019 I hiked the Appalachian Trail, I would hear this for about the first third. The sound is so deep that at first I thought it was coming from inside, like my own heart or cochlea messing up.
I always have this one Grouse nearby me every November in a certain Deer stand. It's pretty endearing, cute, and funny when this guy finds a log he likes and starts drumming like crazy. It's almost like music!
First time i heard one of this in the wild I was hiking and bent over tying my shoe, and i thought to my self " Please tell me that is not my heart" It has no direction on sound it just is everywhere you can hear it for miles !
Great video, I kept hearing this thudding/drumming 'nearly running' engine noise anytime I went out to the backyard on cold nights. I did see a few out there in the daytime but would never have put that sound with this animal. Thanks
Beautiful video of the drumming! When I was in my early teens back in the 80's, we had several grouse. I would hear that noise and I thought someone was trying to start a tractor. Lol It wasn't long before some elder told me what it really was. Lol I miss those days. I haven't heard a Grouse drum in many years around here in Ky
I'm a little late finding this video. What a "Fantastic" job catching this on film, so crisp, and from all angles. Simply beautiful. I hear them all the time here in NB in the spring. But I have never taken the time to try and get it on video. This spring I am going to set up one of my trail cameras on a drumming log as well, and hopefully catch one in the act. A funny grouse story...way back in the early 80.s just after my wife and I were married. She was a city girl. We were trout fishing in a small brook. I was a few yards down stream, when I heard my wife screaming like crazy! My first thought was of course a black bear.. since there were always a few along the brook. I ran in her direction thinking of how I would fight a bear with a fishing rod. But when I got to her she was still hysterical...but I didn't see anything else. She pointed to the tall grass and bushes directly in front of her, and said.. its right there! And I finally caught a glimpse of a ruffed grouse with its tail and wings all fanned out. We were obviously very close to either a males drumming log, of more likely a hens nest. We didn't want to agitate it any more, so went back to fishing. We still recall that day every now and then. And this video brought it back for me. Thanks for a great video! 😊👍
Went for a long hike in Sleeping Giant provincial park and heard this very very low grumble in the woods. It was quite unsettling. Im glad I found this video.
@@Tantemify HD video was becoming popular like 20 years ago in professional gear, cell phone video was still shoddy/potato quality in that era, but real cameras with amazing lenses (like what Lang is clearly using) still looked really nice.
I was hunting for ruffed grouse yesterday and every minute, over five ruffed grouse started drumming and scared the shit out of me because I thought it was hearing my heart beating real fast but it was them doing a summing call and it was amazing to hear them
Beautiful video! For years I wondered what those thumping noises in the Sierra were. They are so hard to see it's amazing you got this footage. I never see them until I practically step on them.
When you hunt them you start seeing them easier. They taste much better than chicken and much more healthier, although I very much dislike dispatching them, they're really just harmless birds trying to survive.
Thank you for posting this vid. Jumped a bird a while back whilst hunting and it startled me because the sound of its flight was so loud. Thought it might have been a grouse. I wasn't very familiar with the species. The sound of its flight definitely sounded just like this. Surprisingly Loud!
Thank you so much! I have heard this sound for 2 days, exactly this sound! It's been a mystery! It was so precise each time I thought something was banging against my house, yet it seemed too distant for that. Not annoying but rather frustrating because I couldn't figure it out. It's a very low frequency and seems to go through me to the point I checked my heart beat lol Thanks for this video. Nature is so fascinating!
It's truly amazing some of the noises birds can put out. Thanks so much for this video. Now that so few people explore the woods, we need videos like this to educate us. Speaking of which, anyone know what makes the noise at 1:51, sort of like rapid wood knocking? I'm guessing a frog? It's repeated more than once on this video.
When I first heard drumming grouse in the woods after moving to an old farmhouse in the Oregon Mountains the sound really carried in the quiet and isolation. I thought someone was trying to start a balky chainsaw over and over until I asked my dear neighbor in her sixties who had lived up there for forty years! 💕😃
Thank you for sharing...a lot of folks having never heard this...used to love it back when I lived in the Appalachians during the “busier” season of their doing their “beating” (as we referred to it). My late father was tone deaf to this sound and had to completely depend on visually spotting them in flight as we hunted them when I was a kid. Looking back, I realize how impressive that was, seeing as he was still successful with even less time for “bagging” them from his lacking the early warning signal of this same sound during their flight before they quickly disappeared into the cover of mountain undergrowth, especially laurel...which was the real challenge(thus draw)of hunting them. 🔥☯️🔥
I was reading a book of Iriquois folk tales and one was about partidges drumming. I was confused as I thought that was an Old World bird, but looking on here it seems like some people call grouses partridges. I'm in Missouri and didn't know they did this. To me it sounds like a prop plane trying to start up! Very handsome dinosaur.
My parents lived in Bland Virginia and I’d spend a lot of time in the forest there looking for bones and exploring. I’d always hear this motor sound like a generator. I immediately thought it was someone cooking moonshine or meth in the woods. When I’d walk towards this motor sound there’d always be nothing there and it would stop. It was the strangest thing. This happened at least six times. So a few years later I get the idea to Google “strange motor sound in woods” and this bird called a grouse kept coming up so I UA-cam searched it and that was the sound!!! I never would have thought it was a bird because the only thing it sounded like was man-made in everything I knew about nature at the time. So fascinating and cool to have my years long mystery final solved. And I learned I wasn’t crazy and the sound was very much real. Lol
Heard this bidd at camp, and it was a deep yet loud sound, and had no idea what it was so it freaked everyone out until someone was like yep that's a grouse
Lovely bit of behaviour and well filmed. Would love to know more how it was photographed. Is it the same bird in all the takes, do they drum in the same place always?
for YEARS. I have been hearing this around my house and never knew what it was. We live by a dormant volcano so it's been quite a worry for me. So glad to know what it is now!!!
Me and my bf thought we were crazy lol. It sounded to us as if somebody dropped a basketball and it was getting slower if that makes sense lol. It really freaked me out! I never thought about searching it till now haha. I think this might be it!
I heard this sound while taking photos during a trail walk. I got scared and thought that it’s someone’s heart beat ( like that of ghosts in horror movies). OMG, I finally found the source😮😂😅
I hear this bird, but it sounds like he is about a kilometer away, could it be a massive bird or an engine that starts up and sputters out? I hear this exact noise but at a much larger scale, i live on the edge of 100 acre hunting grounds
I heard this sound while camping. The noise was so low it was almost inaudible. The sound seemed to be coming from the ground and I thought it was some type of seismic event. I never would have suspected it was bird! Awesome footage! and thanks for solving this mystery
I thought the exact same thing!! I thought there was volcanic activity or something! What a relief to know what it is!
Camping where? 😆😆

Yeah I just heard it a few times at work I do conservation stuff and I knew it was a bird from my ecology class but the sound more felt like it was my heartbeat doing weird impossible patterns
I literally just heard this in my woods. Second night sleeping here and I was like what the what?? It’s low but strong.
First time I heard it out in the woods here, I thought "why does some guy keep trying to start his Harley over and over?". I figured it out after a bit. Flushed 4 of them out hiking this afternoon. The first one of the day always gets the heart racing a bit!
PureCountry045 I thought it was a neighbors propane regulator lol. So nice to find out it’s not that!!
That's exactly what I thought it was, too. I thought somebody was starting up a motorcycle. The neighbor explained to me what the sound was.
i was hunting in some over populated bear country, griz and blackies . walking out at last light where blue is black and its hard to make out shapes in the trees. thats when a grouse jumped and beat its wings so loud i thought it was a bear roaring and as fast at the happened it hit me in the chest. i screamed like a girl and no one ever let me live it down in camp hahhaha they sure do get the heart a racing when they do that.
I also thought it sounded like someone trying to start a tractor far away!
It does🤠
The feeling you get from it is unreal. Feels like it’s inside your head
Exactly!
It literally feels like it's my heartbeat inside my head
@@seankoenigs21omg yes. When I first heard it I thought somehow it was my heartbeat speeding up. It was so strange I thought I was crazy for a second
All this time (a few years now) I felt so sorry for my neighbour trying to start up his old lawnmower. I wanted to go over many times to help him fix it but now I know exactly what I've been hearing way back in the forest. Thanks man
It’s crazy how when you’re close to it you can feel the drumming in your chest as well
First time I heard it in the woods I thought it was pretty cool
Could people thinking Sasquatch tree-thumping is actually the grouse, at least the slow beats? Many noises in the forest could be attributed to 'normal' animals, esp in the dead of night where everything seems amplified. The screech owl for instance has an immense scream that people might think it something 'unnatural' or a dying woman. Not to cast aspersions on the reality of Bigfoot (there's something out there), but on many occasions it is likely mistaken identity.
I heard this probably too close and felt like it was my heart beating out of my chest!! So surreal experience

That's cool I like that sound
Thank you for this beautiful video. I enjoyed the Grouse, Crow, Woodpecker, and other members of the chorus. :)

Amazing video; well done!! And LOVE the crow in the background.
Love that sound. Reminds me of my Dad and Opa saying it was the neighbour trying to start his old John Deere tractor in the bush.

This would make an inaudible ringtone.

its also a courtship advetisement.

Does anyone know what the bird calling in the background around 2:36 is, the one that sounds a little like a beep? A nuthatch maybe? (Not the crow...)
Mr. Elliot I have enjoyed your bird call tapes SOOOOOO much,are they available on CD?

the drummers of nature ....
wonderful stuff. love all of it. who is shooting and recording all this stuff?
Its a form of advert to other birds like "hey this is my territory".
Like. Great video!
wow.....stunning

a beautiful video
