Woodchuck ahoy!

The woodchuck in our back yard has been diligently fattening itself up lately. He/She sets up camp beneath the bird feeder and hoovers up whatever tidbits have been dropped by the careless birds. If you make a movement or a noise, it darts off towards the corner of the yard where there is a small hole under the fence, where it can take cover in the bushes. Once it deems it safe, the woodchuck comes right back to the feeder to keep eating. After all, food is serious business.
