    Someone is warm and someone is cold. If someone guesses correctly I will confirm the answer.

    The answer along with the story.

    I was walking around the yard collecting seeds and as I rounded a corner of the house I came upon a chipmunk eating seeds dropped from the bird feeder. We were both surprised I however, did not have to hide. The chipmunk did what it had probably done before, ran and hid in a gutter downspout. I continued with my seed hunting leaving him wondering when it would be safe to come out. Later I came back to take the picture as I had wondered what the chipmunk saw when it dived into the down spout. So I took a picture.

    Jen came up with the pipe and Jane came up with the culvert and KK came up with the drain and Sjoerd clarified KK' answer. :)

    I'm glad you told us what it was as I can now give my last little, grey, brain cell a rest Jerry. :D

    Well done Jen.

    Hi Jerry,..i used to play a quiz similar to your post,..it was called "Name That Thing",..a portion of an object found in the home was posted,..when it was guessed correctly the entire picture of the object was then posted,..the person who guessed it correctly then posted an object from their home,..you might be interested in starting such a quiz :)
