The Famous Grouse
It’s my favorite whiskey
Grouse flying on the hill
On the hill
Where I am living.

The mouse was swallowed by a grouse,
Hawk had the grouse for dinner.
One gunshot blast, the hawk was dead,
the mouse walked out the winner.

A grump and a grouse ran around town.
Griping and groaning, whining around.
So full of guff
We’d had enough.
Sent them to a circus to be happy clowns.

Grouse Courting
I watch the Grouse do their dance,
As each feather is enhanced,
Vane or down, they’re preened and cleaned.
Keeping them healthy and streamed.
At the tail’s base, an oil gland,
That makes the feathers dry and grand.
From barb to rachis, they’re beak nibbled;
For the courtship ritual.

The Capercaillie
Most delightful wood grouse
Striding so graceful
