Remember how I warned you there would be more pictures of baby woodchucks than you ever thought possible future photographs of our backyard wildlife?
It starts now.

Calm down, they’re babies and they’re cute.
How bad can it be?

In the evening, it usually goes like this…

Mother woodchuck comes out to see if the coast is clear.

And must give some kind of silent signal…

Because before long….

The little ones are scampering around everywhere.

They love our deck and run back and forth so quickly it’s hard to snap a shot.

Two of them chase each other around and love hiding under the grill cover…

While the other two are busy eating deer grain.

With their mother…

Who is in serious need of an 18 hour bra.

Sorry girlfriend, but it needed to be said.

I know you can’t un-see that.
Apologies.
Maybe this bit of cuteness will make up for it.
He doesn’t quite have the hang of it yet…
But he’s trying.
They had woodchucks out at the driving range I used to hit at. They just stood there, unafraid of my mighty swing. They were a good judge of golfers, apparently…

I used to have those type of “moobs”, but keto works for me, so much so (in fact) my wife tells me ro eat a sandwich.
*** as for the baby chuckers…
All I got is:
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Clearly Jack has had one (or three hundred) too many sandwiches.
And yes, you do have to wonder why they’re called woodchucks when they don’t ever chuck wood.

At least they’re not called upchucks because that would be a completely different visual– worse than moobs! Cute little critters. (How much food could an upchuck chuck if an upchuck upchucked food. See what I mean?) Mona

I would love to see some woodchucks scampering about my yard. Instead, we have to settle for squirrels.
