Willow Ptarmigan
A familiar bird of Newfoundland’s barrens and open landscapes, the willow ptarmigan is well adapted to the island’s changing seasons. This graphite portrait focuses on its distinctive plumage and compact form.
Found throughout Newfoundland and Labrador, the willow ptarmigan changes from mottled brown in summer to predominantly white in winter, providing camouflage throughout the year. Its strong connection to the island’s landscape made it a natural addition to Portraits of an Island.
Part of Portraits of an Island, a collection celebrating animals closely connected to Newfoundland.
