What’s “rudge” derived from? Where do the booty chickens come from? What do black-chickens actually look like and what do they eat or by whom do they like to eat them?The exhibition conveys a lot of interesting facts about the grouse and, last but not least, clarifies the question what distinguishes CHARLY as a grouse from his friends the grouse.
