I took this shot while on my hike today in a conservation area called Lemoine Point. Now, realizing there are too many shot of chipmunks out there, I still wanted to post this because I liked the bokeh in the shot.

Of course, the shy chipmunk that didn't want his picture taken, attacked me after getting the money shot and sent me fleeing for my life.:shock:

Thanks for looking.

Thats a really nice shot! And not just because of the bokeh, I like the detail and composition too.

Great shot for all the same reasons as above.

Great shot, is it a chipmunk? the lack of stripes on it's face remind me of a golden mantle ground squirrel, not that I am an expert, just an observation

After looking at it a few times, I think it is a golden mantled ground squirrel. None the less, its a great shot all around.
