A few animals we saw up close on our hike last weekend: a pika, a sooty grouse and a gray jay #pnw #washington #hiking #mountains #grouse #pika #grayjay #birds

In the center of a wooded scene is a grayish brown bird. It’s shaped like a chicken and I almost tripped over it!
Here I present my favorite little animal: the pika. Sitting on granite rocks, this brown furry mammal is related to rabbits. It has round black ears and white feet and has greens in its mouth
