Ptarmigan

Every time I have photographed Ptarmigan it has been a relatively short session, usually two or three hours at the most. This is because, having made the effort to climb the mountain, I like to get shots of as many of the different species that live there as possible, such as Dotterel and Snow Bunting. Often is the case though, that no other species were photographed and I may as well have stayed with the Ptarmigan.

This year I decided to spend more time with them and do the job properly. The hardest part is finding them, as they blend in so well with their surroundings. Once found though, you can settle down with them as they are very obliging and will wander around within metres of the camera.
