Share animal photographs or incredible animal facts. Did You Know? Both squirrels and chipmunks play an important role in the local ecosystem. They carry and hoard seeds and nuts.
It finally feels official: spring has sprung. The songbirds are calling before sunrise, the hibernating animals are coming out and looking for food, the swans are honking on the water, and my favorite red-tailed hawks are screaming and soaring through the air. The rain is falling, the flowers are sprouting, and the Maple Leafs are… not golfing! Earlier today, for the first time this season, I looked outside and saw chipmunks climbing up one of my bird feeders.
When Kathy Miller first decided to turn her photos of a chubby-cheeked chipmunk into a children's picture book five years ago, she had no idea the little creature would change the direction of her life. The first book, "Chippy Chipmunk Parties in the Garden," chronicles a day in the life of the critter in a simple story and 86 color photos by Miller. It was a surprise hit for the cellist and photographer, and won numerous awards and was named to the state's Keystone to Reading Book Award List for primary grades. She followed with a second book about Chippy becoming a father when she discovered baby chipmunks in her yard. That book also was well-received and also named to the Keystone to Reading book list.
In our look at mammals that can really damage your lawn, chipmunks are right up there with moles as far as the ones to worry about the most. The United States has around 24 different species of chipmunks, with 23 of them being located in the midwestern and western parts of the country. Even though there are many species, they all have a similar appearance — mostly brown, with white, black, and gray highlights to their coat. Most noticeable are the stripes that run along their bodies.
