Female Ptarmigan on alert
I initially thought this little beauty was having a peek towards the encroaching photographs when a Tornado roars out of nowhere and echoes around the Corrie... yea I bricked it.

She seemed pretty un-phased.

This was facing in the opposite direction to the previous post. The light seems completely different.

Thanks for taking a look.

Like it even though the bird is looking out of the image, like the sense of environment with the heather just poking through the snow... I just wonder about losing the blue at the top?
