Spruce grouse

Aka Canachites canadensis. I’ve seen plenty of girls, but I’d never come across boys in war paint before. And then out stepped this handsome fellow—even though it was autumn and hardly the season for boys to be sporting that kind of look.
The ISO was cranked up outrageously, since the action was taking place in a pitch-black spruce forest (the birds were living up to their English name).
Looking so handsome, he trudged along behind the lady.
