CHEEKY CHIPMUNK

A chipmunk, with his cheeks full to bursting, has no intention of leaving with an empty stomach. This cheeky fella ensures he’s stuffed as many peanuts as possible into his mouth before heading home. These fantastic close-ups where taken by Canadian photographer Brad Denoon, 48, as he fed them whilst he sat in his back garden in Trenton Ontario, Canada. 'I regularly sit outside and feed the chipmunks, and have done for years now' says Brad.
