Dueling chipmunks?

Really not sure how a chipmunk can lose an eye and still live
Makes me wonder if this one and the split tail are enemies. Lol
Every day you can find it here in this bird house

I have quite a large amount of special needs toads, frogs, salamanders this year. Not sure if I'm noticing it so much more than previous years because they are out in search of water, my river is desert dry or if the winter, or lack of, was hard on them.

Yup, I was quite worried about the impact of our weak winter For them. I had some out in Decmeber and February and thought, oh boy, this isn't good.

(Weak winter hard on them because it didn't give them their required thriving environment)
