Eastern Chipmunk

Wildlife Photo: Eastern Chipmunk

This little critter was captured during a camping trip at Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park in Ontario. There are two species of chipmunks in Ontario, this being the most common species and the least chipmunk being the other.

Photographing chipmunks is practically a camping tradition, so coming up with a different composition can be a challenge. I liked this one for how the foliage from the fern helped frame the chipmunk and put him in his natural environment.
