With fall officially here, snow will soon be coming soon and these littles ones are busy preparing to hunker down for the next several months. Pika don’t hibernate so they need to gather quite a lot to sustain themselves during winter when most of their habitat is covered in snow.
On a recent stop on Trail Ridge Road, I spent some time photographing them going about their busy work. This one paused briefly, took a break, and looked out over the alpine tundra.
