This is the first #ptarmigan I've ever seen in the wild. I saw it in Iceland almost ten years ago. It was May and I think it's the time of year #ptarmigans are transitioning their plumage from the white, winter one to the darker, summer plumage. This ptarmigan is a male as indicated by the red eyebrow. Apparently ptarmigan is the traditional Christmas dinner in #Iceland.
