Wanna see something funny?

Today's Greeting
I was crouched down watching the feeding area to get more shots of the brown thrasher fledgling and this little guy crept out of the rocks....I had spilled some seed, and he wanted to check it out.

delightful and funny.... I been working on trying to get some bird images of the mother and father bird with their 4 - 5 babies as they teach them to fly - they are mag pies but I still love watching them. They talk so much I hear them all day long. I hope to have something worthy of posting as I find a flying bird a challenge indeed. You make it look easy!!! and it is NOT...

These are very nice photos. I have three, I think, families of chipmunks here and they all scurry around, from time to time, gathering seeds, whole peanuts and whatever else happens to be within their territory. I don't mind them and have had some really nice experiences just watching them.

Your photos have a lot of clarity and that is rare on photography blogs no matter whose I have seen -- from pros to amateurs.

Cute progression! I have been overrun by them and wish I knew of a humane way to rid them!

I know they annoy the whooeee out of people, but when they get their cheeks full like this, they look irresistible!

Mary said...

I'm still laughing! I love how the cheeks just keep getting fatter and fatter :-) He is really cute. Would you send a breeding pair to my house? I don't know why we don't have chipmunks around here, but we don't!

You know, I judge people on a daily basis in my line of work. From your blog and comments, you hit me as a great person. The picture on your profile is so adorable. I assume it is you. It reminds me of someone that means so much to me. I wanted to pause and thank you for taking time nearly every day to find something positive to say on my blog. It means a lot. Also Wings n Things spreads so much beauty around the globe. Hope you have a great weekend.

Too cute. I love to see little chipmunks. I don't have any that I know of around me. But I saw a couple yesterday while I was up in Houghton Lake, MI.

Helen: The little Chipmunk certainly filled his cheeks. What great pictures.

This is the first time I've ever seen REAL chipmunk cheeks. Fun!

LOL It doesn't get much cuter than that! I have a resident chipmunk that does this, too. I love watching him!

I love to watch chipmunks fill their cheeks and scurry away, and return to do it all over again. You caught this little rascal in the act alright!! note: to lessen the chipmunks - Get a CAT!!

I'll bet this is a popular post. Those chipmunk cheeks are terrific!
