BOUNTIFUL HIGH Utah and across the Intermountain West are declining due to loss of key sagebrush areas and land-us- e changes. Sage grouse strutting grounds provide an opportunity for biolog- ists to assess relative numbers from year to year. Males assert themselves by standing erect, fanning their tails, and inflating their esophagus bag. Plopping sounds are made when pressure on the trapped air in the esophagus is suddenly released. The white breast feathers of the male are distinctive, and flash like beacons in the early morning sun. When sage grouse strut, males are highly visible. An index of size is obtained by counting the males seen displaying in early morning. These counts are made with the largest count being the official index. The best time to see sage grouse strut is during the first two weeks of April.
