Well, at first I thought the hole in the last blog belonged to one of these guys because they have holes ALL over House In The Wood. As you watch them, they scurry to the edge of their hole, pause, and then disappear down the hole in a flash!
This Eastern Chipmunk pauses to see what I am doing. |
But then I looked a little closer and realized that the hole did not go very far into the ground and it didn't seem to have an active resident. This made me think that it was probably a hole left over from Spring when the female turtles dug their holes in the ground to lay their eggs.
Painted Turtles sun themselves on a log over the lake. |
