The leaves aren’t the only things changing colors—ptarmigan are too! White-tailed ptarmigan turn white in the winter, and they have brown speckled feathers in the summer. This seasonal change helps them blend in. People’s layers also change around this time of the year! If you’re planning to visit Glacier in the fall, be prepared for quickly changing weather and cold nights, along with limited services as roads and facilities begin to close for the season (find current info at nps.gov/glac).

did you see it? ptarmigan are a game bird that is found in northern regions. much like other species which live in variable climates with snow, their outer coat of feathers changes color so that they may blend in with their surroundings. unfortunately for them, but perhaps fortunately for their predators, they think they’re better at hiding than they realize, so one can actually get quite close before they are spooked. OH and they have feathery feet. ptarmigan ptarmigan ptarmigan! thanks for hel
