Chipmunk On Patio — Image by kenne
On November 9th, I posted “A Patio Visitor.” It has been returning almost daily and seems to feed
mostly on seeds falling from the bird feeders. We enjoy watching it dash around on the patio.

It’s not easy to see it
It knows how to blend.

I don’t know why
but I’m pleased
swallowtails seem
to love our patio
Meyer lemon tree
making it easy for
me to set nearby
photographing these
beautiful butterflies.
