Sunday Selfies: Week #455
Kitties Blue got the day off this week, as we have a sunflower seed muncher as your guest host. This is one of the four chipmunks we know about that live in our yard. They spend copious amounts of time under our bird feeders along with the squirrels in order to help themselves to the sunflower seeds the birds drop.
These tiny, furry friends chase each other all over the yard and alley and across the tops of the fences. They are really speedy and so much fun to observe.
Last year, we shared a photo of a chipmunk pup Dad Tom rescued from the street on the post, “Rescued Chipmunk Pup.” It was one of three pups. As we already had three chipmunks living in burrows in our yard at the time, we could have as many as six now if all those pups survived.
Did you know that chipmunks are members of the Sciuridae family? It is the same family to which squirrels belong. I just found that out recently.
Let’s Hop
Our little friend is here to invite you to hop along with him/her. I honestly don’t know its gender. Though none of the Kitties Blue are here today, they all are hoping you will be. All your other friends will be waiting to see you as well. Don’t forget, if you cannot participate today, our hop remains open through Thursday.
After you hop, please enjoy an easy Sunday.
Thanks for being our friends and supporting our long-running Sunday Selfies hop.
Kitties, he looks like a Squirrel…well…in a way😸We don’t have them in our Country, but wished we had, looks even better than live bird-tv😺It’s a great Selfie too! Double Pawkisses for a Happy Week ahead to all of you sweet KittiesBlue🐾😽💞

We don’t have them here. Just as well New Zealanders would probably say they ate things they shouldn’t. I thin he is such a cute thing.

What a cheeky chipmunk!
Everyone thinks chipmunks are cute, etc. but ever since I realized they raid bird nests in the spring and eat the newborns, I have let Xena loose on them.
Chipmunks are cute. Thanks for hosting. Have a great day. XO
What a cutie. We don’t see chipmunks here even at the park.

That’s cool about the chipmunks we have a blue heron on our page. In fact, our ussie is way at the bottom.
That’s pretty cool. I don’t recall ever seeing a chipmunk in the wild. Certainly not where I live.
The chipmunk is cute and much nicer than his squirrel relatives.
Our Selfie is a little different today – it’s a photo of my Angel Brother Sammy…….been thinking a lot about him lately so we did an “Angel Selfie” !! Love the little chipmunk – we have lots of them in our yard – I haven’t chased one yet – Mom says “NO!”
Hugs, Teddy
Oh, how furry sweet he/she is!
So … how about a name? Chip and Dale of course are the easy ones … or Sunflower, Muncher, Cruncher … Stripes! Ah yes, STRIPES! Worn so well.
Nice selfie, Chippie!
Chipmunks and their relatives are fun to watch…but sometimes they can ruin our bird feeders and they will dig where they should not…like under our shed, and some red squirrels chewed the roofing and gained entry…now its full of walnuts, they think they have a wonderful larder…LOL!
That scientific name for the family, Sciuridae, seems to describe them well, as they are always scurrying somewhere!
What a little cutie that chipmunk is. It sure knows how to take a nice selfie, too. Hugs to you all, sweet friends. We hope you’re having a wonderful weekend! XO
