Montana Sharp-Tailed Grouse on the Lek

You have to love spring in Montana, even when it takes a long time to finally get here. We had an awesome time once again watching some sharp-tailed grouse out on their lek from a blind. Spring is maybe my favorite time of year for nature and wildlife photography. This video was shot on my Canon R5 with a combination of my Canon EF 600mm F4 II, Canon RF 100-00 and the Canon EF 70-200 2.8 III. Despite the wind and some noise from the blind, I tried to capture the audio as best as I could with my Rode Video Mic Pro+.

Did you know, actually birds do have many answers to humanity's problems?
