Tunnels in the snow

Now that the rain and warm temps have melted the top layer of snow, we have a visual picture of the method of movement used by the chipmunks that live in the stone walls. Tunnels. As you can see .. there are more than a few false starts. The path on the right is the path to the bird feeder and the many seeds dropped on the ground by the birds.

NINJA CHIPMUNKS after the bird seed!

What a labyrinth of tunnels they've made! Too fool the fox that wanders through no doubt! :)

I haven't seen a chipmunk around here in a long time...we have bunches of mole tunnels in the yard!
