It has gotten very late so I'm just going to do pictures and gratitude tonight. The chipmunk feeders as they are now known did a good business today. We are making at least 3 chipmunks very chubby. They did let some sparrows, a chickadee and a goldfinch share a small portion of the bounty. It was an oddly monochromatic (sort of) day. I took a ton of photos. Lots of sparrows and a surprisingly small number of chipmunk shots (though still a lot.) Oh - there was a squirrel too. Haven't seen one of them in ages and this one had the longest, curliest tail I've ever seen. He used it kind of like an umbrella when it was raining. I'm going to post the chipmunks and my gratitude here and make a separate post with the birds. There are a few cute chipmunk shots but on the whole they stank. Such is life.
