We spent all day at a friend's home in Port Chester, NY, and part of the pleasure was observing their suburban wildlife, enhanced by leaving much of their property wild and by maintaining bird feeders. This chipmunk, plus birds too large to land on the feeders, fed on the dropped seeds below the feeders. The chipmunk kept loading its cheeks with seeds and then depositing them in its burrow a few meters away.

Very nice chipmunk photos, and nice to see them with their cheeks stuffed full. It makes the pictures, which are very nice, even more interesting than if you had taken the same shots as they paused on the way from their burrows.

Brent - Thank you. My intent was to give reference to how busy it was, but you're right, and here's the proof:

Stuart,

So cute with their fat little faces! We have neither chipmunks nor squirrels over here (as I guess you know) only heaps of possums which are too nocturnal to make good portrait subjects, for me anyway.

Peter M & Brent - Thank you.

 

Dee - Thank you. Yes, other than introduced species Oz has no placental mamals other than bats and other small rodents that probably rafted or flew from Indonesia or PNG. In truly ancient times placental and marsupial mamals did co-exist, but they have long since past.
