Ptarmigan. For much of the year the ptarmigan is simlar to the red or willow grouse, with a touch of white on the wings. In winter both sexes become pure white (as does the willow grouse). However, its habitat is quite different as it prefers barren, stony mountain slopes, usually higher up than the willow grouse.

lagopède des bois

[French]

Willow grouse. Found across swathes of northern Europe, these are so closely related to the red grouse of the Scottish grouse moors as to be indistinguishable. The willow grouse inhabits heather moors with willow, birch and juniper scrub while the red prefers moors and peatbogs with crowberry and cranberry.
