Feisty red grouse acts as 'guardian of the glen' while trying to chase cars away

A red grouse that has taken to flying at passing cars and “remonstrating” with drivers when they stop, has become a major attraction in a remote Highland glen.

 The enigmatic game bird, nicknamed Jock by local gamekeepers, has also been known to jump at vehicles and to obstruct their passage by walking in front of them on the single track road.

 When drivers stop and try to chase it away, it chastises them with the red grouse’s signature “goback, goback” call.

Red grouse, which is a willow ptarmigan, is defending humanity from terrorist rabbits, who are bent on destroying the human race.

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

God awards ptarmigan with Heaven. God sends all rabbits to Hell. Ptarmigans are predestined for Heaven. Rabbits, gyrfalcons, and ermines are predestined for Hell.  :yahoo:
