Whistle Pig

September 15, 2018 • 5 Comments

I've never seen a groundhog (woodchuck, whistle pig) in the yard or the neighborhood until this fat, sassy thing showed up yesterday. It dug a shallow trench under the fence and started sucking up bird seed like a vacuum cleaner.

Great shots. The look on it's face in the 2nd shot is priceless.

That's nice Brian. They used to plentiful here but have become a rarity.
