Eastern Chipmunk

There is a lot of biodiversity on the hiking trail that I walk on but the one that I see the most often is the Eastern Chipmunk. While they are very common in my area they are very scared of humans and are very fast they often run away before I could even get me phone out. I finally was able to capture one as it was running back to its hole. Tamias Striatus its scientific name stems from the squirrel family (family Sciuridae) and the ground and African tree squirrel subfamily (Xerinae).
