A wood grouse, Europe's biggest game bird, attacked the off-duty officer during a bike ride in the woods, sending her flying through the air.
The poor old chef can only reply: "We've tried talking them down, but they simply won't come," There are a few types of grouse available: Black Grouse, most commonly found in the Highlands, white Grouse (Ptmarigan), Wood Grouse (Capercaille) and the most common of all (seen on whisky bottles) the Red Grouse, with its distinctive red comb over the eyes and a plumage of rusty brown.
