Mountain tosses out soil as she opens up a partially blocked groundhog pipe in a stream bank. The groundhogs on this farm are taking down the stream bank, which is normally five or six feet above the creek bed.
It's mid-November, and though there are still a few weeks left to the season, some of the groundhogs are starting to lay up. Though groundhogs never true hibernate (I have dug them in the first week of January, through ice and snow), they do start moving out of their dens less and less as the days start to get shorter.

I never see groundhogs after the first of November here, but I see chipmunks up until Thanksgiving/Deer Season.
I think on this side of the Allegheny Front winter just comes a bit earlier (we've already had some snow).
