close encounters of a chipmunk kind

So, we have this picnic area where the employees eat (when the weather is nice, that is) right behind the lodge...and there are lots of little creatures and wildlife running around. This happened a couple of weeks ago, where a chipmunk started ripping away one of the picnic tablecloths...the ones that have batting on the bottom. Well, she must have been nesting because she started ripping off the batting and literally shoving it down her throat and then made a run for it. Luckily, my camera has a decent zoom and I was able to get some pretty good shots of the event. Brave little critters are getting used to having humans around...they get pretty close and brave. It was a very entertaining lunch break! A few days later we saw the pet fox that frequents the lodge grounds aka "campus."
