Barker.... - a photo on Flickriver

Barker....

            It's back to FLYING PIKA season!! Without a doubt, these little ones are probably the most challenging wildlife subjects I photograph, and maybe, the most rewarding. American Pika live up high in the alpine environments and spend their summers collecting various tundra vegetation to store in their numerous winter stash piles scattered throughout the boulder and talus fields where they live. They are closely related to rabbits, but are much smaller.  They survive on their rations throughout the winter. It's very important for them to be able to collect what they need to survive the harsh winters in the alpine. Pika are adorable, hardy, unbelievably quick, tiny ( about the size of a hamster) and just all around enjoyable.
