Several years ago I watched a fox stalk a grouse he got just under my stand and hid as the grouse was coming up a path, when the grouse got even with him he pounced on it and I thought dead grouse well he tood his wings and beat the fox and pecked him in the face until the fox turned loose and he flew off then the fox kind of hung his head down and went out into the field I was watching to a apple tree and started to eat apples and you could tell he was not a happy camper. I am glad I had on a safty belt or I would have fallen out of the tree laughing.
