The lack of snow on trail ridge road in the park has allowed the pikas a little extra time to continue gathering forage for the long winter, they are certainly taking advantage.

Very nice set of captures. Looks like those teeth could do some damage. Beware of rogue pikas!

Great shots!
While not too hard to believe, I find it very interesting that pikas do not hibernate.

Those are great. Hardworking animals, taking advantage of natures reprieve.
