Show Notes

This week we step out of the U.S. and step into the Palearctic region of Sweden to discuss completely foreign Grouse species! Miguel Canaverde and Kevin Erdvig of Project Upland join me to discuss these new birds and their recent trip together.

  • Establishing a love for bird hunting in Portugal and moving to Sweden
  • First impressions of Bracco Italianos
  • What birds are available to hunt? (Spoiler: quite a few!)
  • The Capercallie Grouse, Black Grouse, Willow Ptarmigan/Grouse, Hazel Grouse all in North Sweden
  • Birds found in mature pine/spruce forests
  • Capercallie are super territorial
  • Black Grouse being similar to Ruffed Grouse
  • How is the dog work on these birds?
  • The overall hunting culture in Sweden
  • Hunting opportunities in Sweden for foreigners
  • How do these species stack up in the kitchen?
