A Little Distraction...


I took a little break from the yardwork yesterday when this guy showed up.

Very sweet John. I just love the nuthatch and chickadee too. Glad the hawk was unsuccessful. Any pictures of him yet? Someday I bet! I'll be getting the Carolina chickadee here, no black-capped!

Cool, I have a hard time getting these little guys to sit still! Perfect chipmunk photo.

as distractions go, that is not a particularly bad one ;-)

What a cute little chippie, he looks ready for anything.

What a wonderful visitor! I think I will come steal him :-) It's been so cool and rainy here, our yard looks so overgrown. It seems like in spring it needs mowing constantly.

We're getting into an old-cat cycle, so maybe the chipmunks will come back. I love to watch them in our rock walls.

Maybe he was looking for a handout? :)

I really did enjoy your chipmunk photo. My company of chipmunks have popped out of their underground homes several times on the warmest of days. Otherwise I won't see them as they labored all year, last year, to get enough food to last them over winter.

I take a lot of photos and all are in my backyard here in the town where I live in Ohio. So my selection of wildlife is limited. Still, you can see what I photograph at My Birds Blog.
