ChipMunk

This year we seem to have a lot of critters in our backyard.  We have an infernal rabbit who munches on many of our plants.  We have turtle doves, or something similar, nesting in our evergreen - two small white eggs.  We have robins under our deck - two baby birds.

We also have chipmunks.  The wife named it Charlie but, after seeing a smaller one (Buddy Jr.) roaming around the yard, we decided that Charlie was probably Charlene.  I found their hole a week or so ago and by a weird coincidence ... well, you'll just have to look at the picture:


The wife caught Buddy Jr. staring at her.  He kind of looked like this:

  4. Aren't all chipmunks a little dramatic? Seems when I'm out hiking, if I cross into their territory, they always start screaming their little heads off at me...

    (Tried to post this last week but #$^&@#$%! blogger kept bombing on me...)
