Subash, yes a sub species of grouse, pheasant family -- here is a nice
writeup showing him in summer plummage
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willow_ptarmigan
I'll check my notes -- I do have good notes from that trip - I think I
had my 300 prime on my LX. definitely shot with LX.
The gravelly rise he was on makes it appear that I had to get down on my
belly tograb that shot but I didn't...
Here is another view -- the original slide is sharp but my scan , done
quite a few years ago, was not very good. I should do it over
it is on a calendar and in a book as is, though.

He was pretty tame, for a bird who is hunted for food.

the link worked for me and no i don't recognise him :) nice
ground-level shot. is this a kind of pheasant? 1992, just curious, what
lens you were using then?
