An American pika taking time to smell the flowers but deciding they were better as a meal than a decoration on the high-altitude tundra. 😀
A fun couple of images of this little creature. Taken a few weeks ago, I watched as it worked its way through the alpine flowers, seeming to enjoy the beauty and smells that surrounded it. After stopping to sniff one, it chomped right down on it, enjoying the yellow bloom as a snack. I think I would rather smell it than eat it but to each his own. Ha! Have a great weekend!
