Description
I was so excited and felt so fortunate to come across a large group of White-tailed Ptarmigan in early autumn in the alpine of the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. These beautiful birds are transitioning into their winter plumage, which is all white, from their summer plumage, which is primarily shades of brown. They use camouflage to try to protect and hide themselves from potential predators.
