Hi Susan. here is my reply to your question: the little fellow is a chipmunk. he belongs to the same family as the ground-- and tree squirrels. the chipmunk is about 10 inches long and if one takes the time to feed them...mostly peanuts. find out where they hide and from there draw a walk with peanuts to a place where you can sit and wait for them, you can train them to come to you. hubby has them climbing up on his legs and take a peanut out of his shirt pocket. also our grandchildren enticed them to eat out of their hands.
