Designed as a reference work, it documents and reviews much of what is known about the biology and natural history of this bird. It is based primarily on our published and unpublished long-term studies in British Columbia and elsewhere, and on the studies of others in various parts of the bird's range. 606 $aBlue grouse 606 $aBlue grouse$xBehavior 606 $aBlue grouse$xEcology$zNorth America 606 $aBlue grouse$zNorth America$xGeographical distribution 615 0$aBlue grouse. 615 0$aBlue grouse$xBehavior. 615 0$aBlue grouse$xEcology 615 0$aBlue grouse$xGeographical distribution. 676 $a598.63 700 $aZwickel$b F.
