Adorableness. I love chipmunks. This little guy has been spotted several times lately in the garden. Having a chipmunk around the garden makes me happy. Right before I took this picture, he was darting around, sometimes on a rock, sometimes over by the patio. I grabbed my camera and shot this through the living room window.
A shelter under the hosta leaf…very Beatrix Potter, don’t you think? Perhaps he has a little home under that canopy, with a little bed and a fireplace and a cozy chair or two.
I’ll be careful not to disturb those leaves.
Happy Sunday.
So cute! You’re right … very Beatrix Potter.
It does remind me of Beatrix Potter! So sweet.
Our granddaughters have each created a Fairy Garden in the saucers that usually go under a clay pot. They have lots of chippies and I suspect those little critters frequent the Fairy Gardens for a rest from time to time.
Happy Sunday, Claudia.

I don’t doubt the little chipmunk house at all!
Such a cute, darling little face!
How cute. We don’t have chipmunks in south Texas. I love Beatrix Potter!
Blessings,

Oh, I’ve never seen one in person! I wish I had some cavorting in my garden.

So sweet! I really, really want to believe that he has a little bed, fireplace, and cozy chair under there… and that he wears little glasses and smokes a little pipe.
Hugs,
Jill
Oh my gosh, how ADORABLE!!! Not something you see everyday. (Not at my house anyway). What a cute little guy… or girl.

Oh- isn’t he cute? We don’t have any chipmunks at this house. We used to have them when we lived in town and I just adored watching them. I hope he has a sweet little family tucked away there somewhere- xo Diana
He is currently plotting a complete takeover of your home – just kidding. Great pic.
He’s adorable! I love the idea of him making a home with a fireplace and cozy furniture.
Una fotografía grandiosa:)
Un abrazo
Very adorable. We usually have at least a pair of chipmunks that are very cute. However, I thought they were eating my little flowers. Serene Sunday to you…
Dear Claudia, I imidiately thought of Beatrix Potter, seing your wonderful photo – and I love you imagine the little home,with bed and table ,so sweet ….I have no chipmunks here!
Hugs from Denmark-and me.

What a sweet soul you are.

Well, everyone else who’s commented from Texas has said it, “we don’t have chipmunks down here.” They are so tiny, I thought they’d be larger, more like squirrels!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Eek! Adorable.

Cute, cute Claudia. Joe just saw a chip monk on the walking trail (he walks 3 miles a day and I putter with the flowers). Have a terrific week.
Such a cute little feller! Chipmunks are probably like squirrels: I know squirrels were bigger when I was a kid!
They are such busy little creatures always darting around the gardens and yards. Your imagination is so sweet with these little guys!~Hugs, Patti
Claudia, how adorable is that, lucky to get a picture because they are very spritely! Yes, Miss Potter would have penned a lovable to all generations story…….and Mrs. Tiggy Winkle and Peter R would have joined in most likely!
I’m going to check under my hostas – perhaps I’ll have a surprise too!
Hugs – Mary
Claudia – I LOVE your little Chip! Now if you want him eating out of your hand – literally – get some unsalted peanuts in the shell! We sat out on the patio this weekend and some of our Chip’s were leaping into our laps to be fed. They are the most delightful little creatures!!… Donna (who you once dubbed “the Chip Whisperer”!!)
They are cute…except when they shimmy up your fruit trees and steal all your peaches and then start on your plums :)
