They're Baaack!

Well, not the original crew, but I do have chipmunks again, if only for a short while. We've had a run of unseasonably nice weather for the past week - clear blue skies, breezy, and not too warm. Mother Nature had a little help in the way of some favorite seed mix and peanuts scattered around the patio, and I think they finally succumbed to the temptation. These three little gals are new to me, and just cute as the dickens. One of them has been scaring the bejeezus out of me everyday for a few days now; she likes to try and go up the drainpipe attached to the wall outside my office, and the sound of little feet scrambling comes right through the wall. No names, and none of them itch, (plus I'm plumb out of ideas, and Cupcake isn't here to tell me the difference between them!)

awww, so cute - we don't have chipmunks where I live, just squirrels which aren't as cute IMO

Oh, how CUTE! We don't seem to have any here, but my grandparents in PA have lots of them and they get into the attic and wreak havoc...

Up north they are called Chippies. :-)

Omg. They are so cute!!! Especially the second picture. We don't have chipmunks in Florida, just big, fat squirrels.

I think chipmunks hibernate, but I am pretty sure they don't migrate. It is very odd how different groups come and go. Maybe they are having chipmunk wars and to the victors go the spoils of being pampered and photographed!
