Summary
[edit]DescriptionGreater sage-grouse on Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge.webm |
English: The greater sage-grouse were filling their crops with Wyoming big sagebrush leaves before settling in for the night. Temperatures were above freezing, making it harder to walk, but they would return to below freezing after the sun set. Greater sage-grouse are tough birds, and are capable of handling these harsh conditions as long as they can access the sagebrush leaves. Luckily, the Wyoming big sagebrush is dark against the white snow, and are the first to warm up and thaw out, making them available to eat. Having sagebrush leaves available, even during these harsh conditions, is one of the keys to sage grouse survival.
