If you are a proper chipmunk wrangler, you've been breeding them for security purposes, as attack animals. Send them out there to get rid of the bird!

That's a beauty.
Tried to capture a woodpecker in backyard but the pic came out over exposed.
What lens did you use?

thank you

Thanks, I used a Canon 28-70 f2.8 L at 70mm, f-14, 1/400th for this shot. I put out suet to attract these guys so I get lots of opportunity to shoot them.

Excellent Ron. So you must have been fairly close? Very nice bird.

Thanks, yes, I don't recall exactly but certainly within a few feet. I attract them with a suet feeder and as long as I don't make any sudden movements they tolerate me:) .
