Was sitting on a small rocky crag at Mud Lake having a quiet moment. This chipmunk arrived and began thrashing about in a bush just a few feet from where I sat. Intent on getting to the berries on a bush that could not support his weight, he resorted to all kinds of gymnastic type maneuvers. Very entertaining.

Squaw Lake, Ontario It was so nice to see some chipmunk friends at the cottage again. They sure are something! I am always amazed at how much they manage to store in their cheeks!

83 year old pilot conducting some pre-flight checks in the de Havilland DHC-1 Chipmunk, while his wingman ensures the radio is set properly. These are the types of shot I just wished I would take more of. I am beginning to see the value of the human aspect of photography. Taken with Nikon D200, Nikkor 24-120mm lens, post-processed with ReDynaMix for slight HDR effect, Dodge and Burnt in CS3, and final Digital Lightroom edits. Check out this slideshow I created from that day This image is currently on display at the Walls Fine Art gallery in Downtown Norfolk, VA.

Over the years I’ve befriended a number of chipmunks in my backyard. Cute, brazen and adventurous, these wild chipmunks happily pose for me as long as my supply of almonds holds out. This is a collection of my best chipmunk photos, featuring Buddi, Billy, and my current starlet, Frannie.
