Pika-Boo!

I've been trying to see a Pika for years and today was my lucky day.
During a lunch break in the Boulder River Wilderness, I heard a noise and there he was.
We played hide and seek for a few minutes until he took off.
When I downloaded my pics, I was sad to see he was injured.

More trip pictures are ( here ).

Excellent sharpness both in the Pika and his rock! He has a smile on his face... Really nice earthy tones! It's so exciting to "capture" a creature you've been longing to photograph... CC

Soo cute. Love the angled pose on the rock. Hope it survives- it is tough being everyone's prey. Cindy C

Ang, what a great find! I'm sorry too, that he is hurt. It's a tough life out there in the wild! Very nice shot.
