Description
Male Sooty Grouse (Dendragapus fuliginosus) - He puffs up his plumage, fans the tail, droops the wings, bobs the head, and struts around the female, calling and exposing yellowish sacs at the side of the neck. These behaviours were all witnessed in this instance.

Thank you Rick. I've been lucky to see them a couple of times now, but nothing like this.
