Garden friend

[jackb]

This friendly little guy, who we named Simon, has been keeping me company in the screen house for several days. Then another, who we named Garfunkle, showed up, now my wife tells me that there is a third mouth to feed. We are fresh out of names and are open to suggestions.

Alvin! The trouble making chipmunk from cartoons and movies.

 

[jackb]

Alvin it is. See, that is why they call you "Smart Red."

If another 'relative' shows up, the next name is Theodore, but I much prefer Garfunkel myself. Good choice!

I can't believe how tame he is. I have had a explosion of chipmunks after coyotes ate all the cats

 

[jackb]

I open the door in the morning and call: "Simon, good stuff, come and get it" and in seconds his little head is sticking out from under the deck. We had a feral cat roaming around here for a few years so we had no chipmunks. The cat is gone and they have returned.

Why can't I have cute fuzzy friends like that to hang out with??? My friend is a stinking toad

Well, give the toad a kiss, it might turn into Prince Charming, then again, it might not.

I'd take toads over chipmunks.......
