A few minutes before I took this photo, I was sitting on the front steps with this chipmunk, who was eating seeds from my hand. I decided not to startle it with the camera, so came inside to shoot him.
This is my friend Bramble, who dwells beneath a blackberry bush along our driveway, at the edge of the woods. Bramble has been with us for quite a long time. I think I called him/her something else last year, when he/she was living beneath the Saab we park next to the garage. My chipmunks' names are usually directly connected to the location of their burrows.
And here's a view of the little lake--all the ice cover is gone (except a tiny strip hugging the shore, which isn't visible in this shot.) Nice to see open water again!
I'm off to the hairdresser today. All this spring weather means I need a new springtime "'do" !
