Popular upland game birds include common pheasant ("Phasianus colchicus"), grey partridge ("Perdix perdix"), common quail ("Coturnix coturnix"), Eurasian collared dove ("Streptopelia decaocto"), turtle dove ("Streptopelia turtur"), woodcock ("Scolopax rusticola"), and starlings ("Sturnus" sp.). Other hunted birds include hazel grouse ("Tetrastes bonnasia"), wood pigeon ("Columba palumbus"), skylark ("Alauda arvensis"), thrushes ("Turdus" sp.). Among the most sought-after game birds in Romania is the capercaillie ("Tetrao urogallus"), a large turkey-like bird, which have a significant presence in the country. It is hunted during mating season, on snow, when the male becomes deaf and blind to all things around him and can be stalked. Beside taxidermy mounts, unconventional capercaillie trophies are the 400-1000 gastroliths, or gizzard stones.
