Flying Pika
We spent some time trying to get good images of this little Pika gathering grasses to take back into her burrow in the rocks. Pika spend the short tundra summer gathering the grasses that will sustain them through a long and cold winter. This location is adjacent to Trail Ridge Road near the highest point of the road - 12,183 feet. Look carefully, she's in mid-air jumping from rock to rock.
