EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Capercaillie: A Majestic Display of Winter Pride - Kuhmo, Finland" 2. In the heart of the Finnish winter forest, the capercaillie male proudly displays his vibrant plumage, showcasing his grandeur and dominance. This breathtaking moment was captured in the serene town of Kuhmo, Finland. 3. The capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus) is Europe's largest grouse species, with males boasting striking black and white feathers, a red face, and a distinctive, fan-shaped tail. 4. During the mating season, these majestic birds perform elaborate displays to attract females. The male's tail plays a crucial role in the courtship ritual, spreading out like a fan to reveal its intricate black and white pattern. 5. As the snow blankets the forest floor, the capercaillie's display becomes even more captivating, set against the backdrop of a pristine winter landscape. 6. This image, taken by renowned wildlife photographer M. Watson, offers a unique perspective of the capercaillie's display, focusing on the male's impressive tail feathers. 7.
