About
The Pika is a high mountain rabbit like critter with no tail. It can be found in the talus rock slopes. You can usually hear it chirping and see it runing through the rocks. The do not hibernate but gather large quanities of grass and vegetation to make it through the winter.
Cute little Pika - they are really fast and hard to take a picture of.
Here's some suggestions tho':
- Get down to their level. I like to lie on the ground because I can hide and scare the little critters less, and also I get their perspective a little better.
- Lower the F-stop. You can blur the foreground and background by using depth of field by setting your F-stop to as low as it will go. Focus on the eyes of the animal as a rule of thumb.
