Chipmunk in Birdfeeder 20 Ft. above Ground?

Sterling, VA(Zone 7a)

Pls excuse the bad photo taken through a window. I thought chipmunks were ground dwellers -- has anyone out there ever experienced a chipmunk invading their birdfeeder? -- and this is a birdfeeder positioned on a tree top about 20 feet above ground.
Thanks, Snug

Oh that is cute Snug! Doesn't surprise me one bit.

Haven't seen it here because the feeders are on baffled poles.

Sure makes a cute photo. These little critters can go just about anywhere they want-and frequently do.

Oh yes...battle them every year. They can get anywhere! Very good climbers and jumpers!

thank you for your comments! Yes, they're cute, but I didn't think they ate nyjer seed, which is a bit more expensive than your average birdseed. ;.) Snug

I had to quit using the net socks because they were just ripping them open!
