20100825 - 2 011 Black (melanistic) Chipmunk SERIES.jpg

Shirley's Bay

OK, so I promised no more images of the Black Chipmunk; however, I lied. I went through my many shots taken on three separate days and I decided that there are several more images that might be of interest or entertaining.

Following are five more images of the Black (melanistic) Chipmunk. By now many have seen postings of this unique, once-in-a-lifetime Chipmunk. For a description and reference to an article in The Ottawa Citizen see my initial posting at http://www.pbase.com/hankvv/image/127757321 .

Top Image: Mmmmm, this one's good."

Stuffing it in.

"YOU! Got a problem with this?"

A Mischievous Look.

"Can't hold no more, so I might as well have a smoke."
