The Prairie Sharp- Tailed Grouse wasn't the most beautiful animal that we have discovered so far along this journey I would actually say it is one of the ugliest. It wasn't so much that it was ugly but that it was plain and didn't really seem original. The sharp tailed grouse was gray with some white feathers. The male that we saw had a purple neck patch and also had a yellow comb over his eyes.
