8380ex Dusky Grouse

This was a lifer sighting for me, that I just re-discovered in my archives.

 

Found while hiking through the aspen forests of the Snowmass Wilderness of the White River National Forest near Maroon Bells. Aspen Colorado area. They favor rocky areas and meadows above the treeline in alpine forests.

 

** New ID thanks to iNaturalist--- incorrectly named as White Tailed Ptarmigan previously
