Golden Eagle Art Gallery is pleased to offer an extensive collection of world-renowned artworks by Canadian wildlife artist, Robert Bateman. World-travelled and well versed, Bateman always tells a great story about each of his creations. Here is what he has to say about this piece:
"I have shown this ruffed grouse in a half display mood. Full regalia is almost never spread in winter. It is an early snowstorm in late fall. Ruffed grouse are equipped with fringes on the toes which give a modified snowshoe effect. Even so, this fellow is having a bit of difficulty wading through the freshly fallen fluffy stuff."
