Large simultanious sage grouse monitoring. VS at Kelly dump, 0 birds in morning, 6 flew-in later while radiotracking. TR at Refuge lek; one group of 6 females, one group of 2 males, and one group of 1 male, 3 females. Talked with Joe of Fish and Game, gave a large amount of information. Typically no concentrated lekking area at Refuge, usually very scattered with much foraging in the canyon.
