I'm Chip, I'm Dale...

The ark is nearly finished - some outlining to do.  Then add a rain cloud, some water, and few pairs of animals...

Though I don't see any Chipmunks charted above - that surely is an oversight!

We have fearless baby chipmunks swarming our back patio much to the delight of Tom-Cat and Parvati.

I assume they are baby chipmunks as they are about 1/2 to 3/4 the size of the ones I've seen all winter.  This one found a hazelnut and is busy trying to shell it.

If that was Chip, then this must be Dale.  Take a close look at his tail - he's lost a ring of fur about 1/3 up.

Here he's hard at work burying sunflower seeds in my Agaves.

Isn't that a fierce little face?  You've heard to Angry Birds...maybe I could make a fortune with Angry Chipmunks! 

Some people have Garden Fairies or Garden Gnomes...

I appear to have Chipmunk Finials!

    Such dear little faces chipmunks have... I wonder if Dale's missing part of his tail as the result of a run-in with your kitties?

    Nice progress on your latest Noah creation :)

    wonderful stitching! the ark is so cute. The photos of the chipmunks are great! I guess you'll have to find an ark where they didn't forget the chipmunks.
