Red Grouse
Red Grouse
The population is declining, and the Red Grouse has made it onto the Red List. Understanding the limited movements of grouse populations is important to reasoning their limited numbers. They are more affected - than other bird species - to changes in their landscape and perhaps the pace of change has been too swift for some local populations to react. Other possible causes include; disease, fertilisers, predators, hunting and climate change -The relatively wet Irish climate might influence the breeding success of ground nesting birds such as the Red Grouse.
