Hiya! My turn! Finally! Didja miss me? Sometimes I have to beg to get a turn.
We have one of those Chippys that hides in the bottom part of the grill. I can smell the little bugger. Sometimes I hunt him for hours…and bark.
Far Side took some photos of me hunting.
I can smell him but I cannot see him. Can you?
Where is that tasty morsel little rascal?
My nose is going 40 mph.
Hide and seek…I am seeking…he is hiding.
He lives to see another day.
Sometimes it is all about the chase and not the capture.
Hey, this is Bob the Border Collie and I've never sniffed a chipmunk but they sure sound like fun! Yeh!! Yeh!! Yeh!! I'd like to get my nose on one of those!!! I'll trade you a couple squirrels for a chipmunk!! How bout it!! Huh?! Huh?! Huh!!! You have a good day there, Chance!!!
ReplyDeleteBOB!!!
Hi Chance! Theo and I have not seen any chipmunks here, yet, but several deer. You keep on seeking that bugger! Have a good day.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you wouldn't want to actually catch Chippy, then who would you hunt? But good for you for keeping him in line!
ReplyDeleteGo for it, Chance! Those little buggers sure are tough to deal with. Gypsy and Tucker are tantalized by bunnies that hide under the mower deck. They can smell them.... and hear them.... but they can't get close to them. Darn!
ReplyDeleteDear Chance,
ReplyDeleteI sit so very close and watch my ground squirrels eat but can't get at them through the screen...and they know it. Best of luck!

I'm glad you are back Chance. Mom and I like to read your writings! Boomer

You might get him next time!
ReplyDeleteOne of these days you will catch him, Chance. Then he will be sorry. ^_^
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from ya chance. Good story on the chipmunk.
ReplyDeleteThat should be an Olympic event: The Chippy Chase!
ReplyDeleteCute photos of Chance looking for the chipper.
ReplyDeleteYou are looking good, Chance. Glad to see you back, and yes I missed you! :-)
ReplyDeleteWe will always remember the times when Button loved chasing the chipper in the bushes on Grand Marais' artist point. He would remember that they lived there from summer to summer and he would run to check them out each year. He was kept busy there while we would have coffee and rolls. Button lives but is under a lot of one on one care these days.
ReplyDeleteI like this! Life is many times all about the chase, isn't it!
ReplyDeleteHmm. Chance, what wine would you pair with fresh Chipper? You were very close - very close indeed!
