Willow Ptarmigan

Male Willow ptarmigan photo, Lagopus lagopus, Chugach National Forest, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska.

I eventually got close enough to this male Willow ptarmigan (lagopus lagopus) to get a closeup of his head and those wonderful 'eyebrows'. For such a small creature, he was able to exude a majesty all his own. Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. This photo was taken in the Chugach National Forest, on the Resurrection Pass Trail, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. (Lagopus lagopus).
