A sure sign of "Spring," Theme #300, is the daily presence of the neighborhood groundhogs. Spotted this guy nosing around under the birdfeeders.Looks all cute and cuddly, doesn't he? The little rascals can eat a backyard bare in no time flat. They are particularly fond of vegetable gardens and purple coneflowers.
Nice catch. I haven't seen any of those in my back yard.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the truth! In the summer months these critters seem more prevalent than humans around here! ;-)
ReplyDeleteLove this shot - you've made the little guy look quite handsome!
Great picture. Groundhogs can be a real nuisance, sometimes. I love to see one, however.
ReplyDeleteHow cute! I've never seen a groundhog in person. I don't think we have them here. :O(
ReplyDeleteThis little guy is so cute. You were lucky to have your camera ready. There is a lot of detail in the photo--Very Nice shot.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shot - I don't see a shadow....It's hard to believe that something so cute can cause such a mess in the yard LOL
ReplyDeleteSure is cute for being so destructive! Nice to catch one before it runs away.
ReplyDeleteOh my! Is that the guy from Caddyshack? Nice catch; he really blends into the background.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely rodent-like! Not so sure about the cute and cuddly part! Great stealth shot, though!
ReplyDeleteOh...but he looks so cute!! Great shot.
ReplyDeleteWe called them woodchucks growing up, but they are the same critter. I always loved spotting them. And we never answered the question of How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. Or of course the alternative, How much ground could a groundhog grind if a groundhog could grind ground. Charming photo!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen one either, it is cute in a rodent like way...
ReplyDeleteHe is very cute and snuggly. I won't say what happened to them as I used to live in the country. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteHe does look cute. I've never seen one before either. Lucky shot!
