I was editing some images for a new project when I came across this photo of two Least Chipmunks side by side on a wooden post high in the Wasatch Mountains<\/span><\/a>. The chipmunks were just so cute that I wanted to share them today.<\/p>\n

\"TwoTwo Least Chipmunks on a post \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1000, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I am always thrilled when I am able to get two of these tiny creatures in the same image. These two were eating something on top of the wooden post together when I found them.<\/p>\n

As I recall it was very hot that day even though I was high in the mountains. I wondered if the chipmunks felt the heat while they were perched out in the open. I took a very long series of images of these two chipmunks. Why wouldn’t I?<\/p>\n

I am looking forward to finding and photographing Least Chipmunks this spring, summer, and fall. They make me laugh when they are playing together. Sometimes I simply watch them instead of taking photos.<\/p>\n

I could use a good dose of chipmunk fun right about now.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
