Great shot boomer, man those birds are made to blend in with their environment.

Good shot. Like the composition. Very similar to the Rock Ptarmigans we have here in Iceland. :-)

This shot Dave is beautifully composed and focus is spot on showing up good detail in the chick. Good work.

Excellent sharpness & great composition. I personally would prefer to see a bigger image.

Very nice shot of the chick Dave. I've never seen one before, let alone photograph one.
