As you enter the stand of spruce and golden tamarack, you are surrounded by stillness. Then, a faint rustle in the underbrush reveals two birds. There rests the birds with black speckled feathers protecting their clutch of eggs cradled in a bed of conifer needles. 

Unafraid, they will stay in place, often unseen as you pass by, thus the nickname “fool hen.” They show little fear of humans, allowing them to be easily approached. They spend most of their time on the forest floor, always one with their home.
