I Just came across this pika picture again today, it’s just so cute I can’t help it but have to post it again. See my first posted for another shot of this pika near the same location and iformation on this little guy. It's also known as rock rabbit.

Pikas are very shy, I saw them on the way hiking up the mountain, they ran into hiding as soon as they saw or heard me. So on the way back, I made sure to be very quiet before I got to where they hangout. Lucky me, they were there eating some plants didn't know I was there. This one saw me and jump up the rock. I was able to with my zoom len capture a couple of shots before they all went away.

Sorry, no camera setting info
I have all my raw file archived elsewhere
Cropped to focus in more on the pika
slightly constrast and saturation

Hi Way
I never get tired of looking at cute little Pika's. The composition of this little guy sitting on the grey rock with multi coloured lichens is very natural. Excellent DOF and POV. Well done.

Hallo Way
What an adorable and cute little creature. To me this one definitely have high ooh and aah factor. A charming little guy with some lovely details to admire. The big saucer shape ears are just too cute for words. The fluffy white hairs on the inside of the ears add a special feeling to this delightful image. The big black eye looks wide awake and the whiskers are very clear and visible to the eye. I enjoyed looking at this one a lot. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna

Hi Way,
What a cute little pika.
Sharp details against a perfect DOF.
I like the soft pastel colors.
I wonder what those tiny little red spots in his ears are.
TFS. : )

Nice capture! I've not been so lucky. They are always too quick for me!. Your image is really sharp and nicely exposed.
