Chipmunks Can't Be Trusted...

I gave Steve the Chipmunk the benefit of the doubt and planted a bunch of my sunflower plantlets. I assumed he wouldn't bother with them since they had already sprouted. I should have known somethin' was up when I saw him in a trench coat with sunglasses and holdin' that wee chipmunk spade.
Steve is now on my sh*t list.

Now Clarice on the other hand is a sweetheart! And she's my lil' buddy too.

She comes by almost every day for "dinner." It's been about 3 years now.

I really try not to let the wildlife get used to us, but she'll come as close as a foot away from me. She must trust me.
The other mornin' hubs opened the back door and there she was. He yells, "Your buddy is here to see you!" So I went outside to talk to her.

Gettin' back to Steve the Chipmunk... He has absolutely no fear of us!
It's just a matter of time before I see him in the kitchen pourin' himself a cup of coffee.

Remember to enjoy nature.
