A Little Groundhog

 

While walking in my quiet suburban south jersey town this week, I passed this immature groundhog. Adorable, right? There are lots of groundhogs in town. They breed in spring, and by now the year's babies are old enough to sit outside near their burrows. This one was basking on the sunny edge of the sidewalk. Click to enlarge. And, by the way... 

 

Do you know how a groundhog remembers how many trees it has chewed? It keeps a log. 

And ... Do you know what a French groundhog sees on February 2? Its château...  

This reminds me of a groundhog that drank invisible ink.

I hear he's still at the vet's waiting to be seen. 


Welcome to the neighborhood, little groundhog.
