During our recent camping trip to Mirror Lake we were visited by lots and lots of cute little chipmunks. They were brave little chipmunks because despite Petal and cousin Penny barking at and trying to chase them, they always returned. I think they enjoyed teasing the girls. They’d run through our camp site, in plain and clear sight, then dive into a bush or behind a rock or up a tree.
Picture my Dad took of a chipmunk having a snack on a rock right beside the camp chair my Dad was sitting in.
Petal just loved seeing these little guys and would whine, cry and bark. She even gave them her best play bows and play dances to try and convince them she was friendly and just wanted to play. When that didn’t work, she tried to follow one of the little chipmunks up a tree he decided to hide in.
“Come back, little chipmunk!”
“Little chipmunk! I just wanna play!”
“Little chipmunk? I know you’re up there!”
“Little chipmunk?! Was that you?!”
Despite all her efforts and good intentions, she was never able to convince one to play with her. Poor little Petal.

Beautiful photos–she really looks wistful! And Petal, maybe there’s a Chipmunk-shaped squeaky toy in your future!

Poor Petal, perhaps a chipmunk toy would be best.
Poor Petal. Mr. N wants to “play” with the chipmunks too but he definitely doesn’t have good intentions!
