Chipmunk Cracking Open Sunflower Seeds

The chipmunk loves sunflower seeds. He zips under the fence to visit the ground under the bird feeder and gathers several seeds in his mouth then zips back to the limestone rock and opens them to eat the seed. You can see the seed shells piling up on the rock. So cute to see Chip Munkerson in action. Sometimes I place a few walnuts on the rock as an extra little gift/treat for him.

Note: I keep calling the chipmunk 'him' but i'm not sure if it is a he or she.
