[cobirds] Gunnison Sage-Grouse, Gunnison County

This morning I saw 4 Gunnison Sage-Grouse at the edge of a patch of Ponderosa, Spruce and Douglas Fir in an otherwise wide expanse of sage brush habitat on CR 26 about at the mile 5 marker.  The birds flushed as I was exiting the woods. These were the only Sage-grouse I found after searching this area for the past 4-5 days.  Lots of Brewers Sparrows but, alas, no Sage Sparrows as yet.
