I was just learning photography at the tail end of my graduate career in the mid-90's, and chipmunks provided some of my earliest successes as I hiked the trails of Pipestem and Bluestone State Parks in West Virginia. Not surprisingly eastern chipmunks were one of the earliest galleries on my website, but over time I took the gallery down since it no longer met my standards. We moved to Oregon not long after and since then on every trip back east, I've tried unsuccessfully to get better pictures of these little creatures. I had better luck in Maine so it is with great pleasure that I am re-introducing eastern chipmunks to the site, taken during our trip to Maine.
Welcome back little ones!
