Sunflowers, and my arch-nemesis

[wraithfodder]

Here are some shots of the one (1) sunflower that popped up in my garden. All the ones I planted? Nada, zilch, but this sucker grew up on its own. I figured I should take a picture before some wild animal destroys it (more on that later).





And here is a video of my arch-nemesis, the chipmunk. I suppose it doesn't help I feed the critter sunflower seeds... I suspect our house will collapse into a massive sinkhole one day, and billions of chipmunks will pour out. Yeah, they're EVERYWHERE. A couple years ago one chewed the bottom of my remaining sunflower plant - TIMBER - and then ate just a tiny piece out of it. Grrr...

Oh my god, that is SO CUTE! I live in a country where we don't get chipmunks, so I don't see them as "pests", and just see them as adorable creatures. :)

Also, those sunflowers look huge. I'm impressed!

They're adorable (the chipmunks). Oh it's just one sunflower, from different angle. I wish I had more than one!
