A Day In The Life....

I decided to document this chipmunk who resides in our back yard. This is a picture of his home from in between the slats of our porch. He lives under our shed in the hole on the left. This is where he gets most of his food and this is a close up of him digging in!!! Right out of our bird feeder. Clever little guy isn't he??

Before he eats he sits and looks out for any predators or possible photograghers taking pictures of him, but for a while on this day he didn't notice me.

I caught a great shot of him in action as he ran up his favorite resting place up to his food source.








This is where he goes to straight out of his home in the hole when he makes it across our deck. He perches himself up on the fence and waits to run up to the feeder.




This is a wider shot to see all of the fence the post and the feeder from a farther distance. A day in the life a a chipmunk may seem easy, but its a pensive one at best for him and a patient one for a photographer trying to get a glimpse of him doing all he does!

"A day in the life of an Indiana chipmunk!" I love it! He just needs a name now...and it can't be Chip.
