Chipmunk

We saw this little fellow on our drive tonight. He or she was happily munching on a dandelion head. If that is a favorite food - there is no need to worry about running out around here!
It looks like from the "leftovers" that the little chipmunk likes the yellow tips only. Friends that are moving soon up to their summer place out here have a whole family of chipmunks living near their cabin. They are well fed with sunflower seeds and provided with nesting material too. They look forward each spring to getting out to see their chipmunk babies. There are over 30 of them and they are really quite tame. If you sit still in a lawn chair, they will scamper in and out of your feet looking for seeds. We will get to see them next week!
