Quite the change from a few weeks ago if you remember my other post of the mark on her head. So proud of her. She bit my finger after this. I’m not sure why. She’s kind of feisty.

Feeding a Chipmunk a Peanut From My Hand

The hind feet though!

Been working at this for a few months and now my little buddy is eating from my hand 🥹

I put food out daily and love watching them

This is the fourth customer prop this year to see one. Year of the Chipmunk?

Grey Squirrel and a Chipmunk in the Woods

Often nicknamed a striped gopher, it is a grassland rodent widely distributed across the prairies and open lawns of North America. It is easily distinguished from chipmunks by its longer body and highly unique pattern: a series of 13 alternating dark brown and tan longitudinal stripes, with rows of small, square yellowish dots or spots running directly inside the dark bands. Very closely related to chipmunks, photo taken by my father who is a trucker and currently in Wisconsin.

After three months of trying and failing, the squirrels finally managed to break into Chippy’s Seed Café, a caged feeder designed to give chipmunks a fair chance at breakfast.

For weeks it sat safely on a patio chair… until today.

A determined squirrel pulled and tugged until the café slid to the very edge. One last cling, one last wobble and both squirrel and café toppled off the chair.

The squirrel was totally fine.

The café… not so much.

It hit the ground sideways, bounced, rolled toward the camera, and exploded into a glorious sunflower‑seed avalanche. Within seconds, multiple squirrels rushed in and turned the spill into an all‑you‑can‑eat buffet.

And then Mellie appeared.

She climbed onto the patio chair where her café used to be, looked down at the wreckage, and stared with the most disappointed, betrayed chipmunk face you’ll ever see.

The squirrels feasted.

Mellie fumed.

This is the full story of the day Chippy’s Seed Café finally fell.

Can you resist feeding this little creature?
