these were taken THROUGH my kitchen window at 40X zoom so they are not ideal or very clear......this chipmunk came up and started to shove the bird seed on the ground into his pouches so fast and so much he was like a sweeper. His little pouches were filled and his head looked HUGE by the time he was done. I don't know how he could move let alone lift up his head and keep walking around. He pretty much laid on his belly the way it was with his head to the ground and sucked the seeds up into his pouches like a sweeper!
The red-winged blackbirds make appearances in my backyard every so often. I found that very interesting as you usually only see them out in the country on fences, or at least that was the only place I normally would see them until I started putting seed out in my backyard and they started showing up here too. Only a couple or handful come at a time...sometimes only one as in this shot.

I don't think the chipmunk could hold anymore, do you? I don't know if we've had the red wing black bird or not, would have to ask your Father.
Chipmunk and the winged black bird through your kitchen window looks great.
Cheers!
Chipmunks are such cute little creatures. I haven't seen any around here, but they were common where I grew up. Very entertaining to watch. This one won't be hungry for a while. :)
