We've had a resident woodchuck in our backyard for several years now - and this is the time of year when they start to get really fat! This year momma woodchuck has two little ones, and they all seem to spend most of their time under our apple tree or our neighbor's pear tree. The best part is - they sit upright on they're hind legs and eat the fruit with they're paws. The way they eat is so human- like, they almost look like cartoon characters.
