Anyone want to come over for BBQ chipmunk later. It's not definite yet it could happen.

Dude has never caught any chipmunks yet his perseverance i admire. Earlier a chipmunk took a peanut and Dunc was asleep on the porch this is definitely a work in progress.
Also can anybody recommend a GLP. For portly chipmunks as the peanuts and grapes are starting to show results.

The squirrels have enough speed and other escape tools to taunt, yet remain (mostly) safe so they are last.

But, no rabbits, chipmunks, marmots, prairie dogs, beavers, groundhogs... others on a case by case basis.

They live under the bushes each week it seems i see new babies. At times I’ll toss out carrots or a bag salad , although they really enjoy the clover that is plentiful in yard.
Dunc last year was stalking a rabbit and the bunny was like you do realize i can see you.

"showing her" their protected status by stretching out in the sun during the day like lazy rag dolls. At night, yeah, they are definitely smart enough to run under the bushes and the front of my house to escape the raptors and the occasional passing coyotes--who don't respect their place in the hierarchy.
