Well, that’s a mouthful!

This cute American Pika provided me an hour worth of entertainment last month. It knew the change of seasons was coming and was busily gathering food for the coming winter. Back and forth it would go from its burrow to the small patches of grass and flowers that dotted the talus field where it lives. As you can tell, it tried to make the most out of each trip. 😉

With snow now having fallen in the high country at their homes, these little guys are going to be furiously working to prep for their long wait until spring.
