Baby squirrel! It's just barely bigger than a chipmunk, and definitely a fox squirrel rather than a smaller pine squirrel. Wasn't very afraid of me at all.
Finally, for once, I know what one of your pictures is: Second picture is a Golden Mantled Ground Squirrel. We have them in the Sierras, and -everyone- mistakes them for chipmunks. Beautiful.
