Cathedral Park. Ten years hence. White-tailed Ptarmigans

Cathedral Park. Ten years hence. Part One.

Aka Lagopus leucura. The smallest ptarmigans.
Already started to change colour for winter. Soon will be completely white, just right for snow. Now they are so similar in colour to rocks and grass, that can be seen only when move.

What a culottes!

Feeding.

Males have red eyebrows.

Sand bath.
