Those Nutty Chipmunks

This is Dinky. She runs right passed my ground-level window at work, so I started putting some food out for her. With the exception of having to crawl over the computer and out the window to change props, this has been relatively simple. At first I thought she was a "he," but I found out otherwise! I named her three babies Itty Bitty, Teeny Tiny and Rinky Dinky Chipmunk. I have also been able to distinguish between Dinky (the female) and Buck (the male - named by Erin). At times they had gotten into fights outside my window over the food, but they have worked out a system for sharing that seems to work fine.

Check back later for more pictures and updates! Who knows where these nutty chipmunks will show up!!

Thanks for sharing!
I have chipmunks running around too. They are always in my bird feeders. My only concern is that they are digging tunnels close to my foundation and causing some water problems. Has anyone else had this problem?
Guest 27-Mar-2009 15:22
Great pictures and messages. Just be careful with the food you give them so it doesn't hurt them. They don't need sweets, even though they love it. The fruits and berries and veggies are great.
