Least Chipmunk

Also taken at the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge the Least Chipmunk, or Tamias minimus. One of the most common North American Chipmunks. There were about forty of these guys running around. I was alerted to the fact that an owl likes to hang out in a tree just across the river from this location, roughly fifty yards away. The fact that these guys were out and about proves that the owl wasn’t.
