"The bird might just have been con-cerned that the big microphone Larry was carrying might have been a threat to him but that appears to be black and is nothing like another grouse," said Mr Roberts.

Ben, a 15-year-old sheepdog, was frightened by a rocket and jumped over a 10ft wall where he hanged himself on his leash.
