eastern chipmunk

tamias striatus

Description:

This little guy we've nicknamed "Mr. Chippy" lives in our back yard and scurries and scampers back and forth between the front and the back. This picture was taken in the front when Chippy was very curious about the down-spout from our gutters. We are sure, to his surprise when it rains they turn into a free shower! Very adorable and provides hours of amusement for out 2 kitties Cleo (Mommy) and Daisy Mae (Baby)

Habitat:

found in eastern North America

Notes:

Hopefully the stray outside cats have not eaten Mr. Chippy for lunch! :-)
