Least Chipmunk A least chipmunk chews on a pine nut in Yellowstone&#039;s Hayden Valley. When I initially looked this photo over after taking it, I didn&#039;t think much of it.<br />

But, a couple of months later, I was browsing through photos and came across this one. After closer inspection, I found that I really love this photo. Maybe the aspects I appreciate in photography are starting to change as I learn more about the hobby...<br />

Least Chipmunk

A least chipmunk chews on a pine nut in Yellowstone's Hayden Valley. When I initially looked this photo over after taking it, I didn't think much of it.

Either way, enjoy!
