What the heck is making these holes?

Chipmunk?

Yes... Poor little guy;-) Never heard of a Chipmunk boring holes similar to those in question.

Yup, definitely a chipmunk. Chipmunk - Wikipedia

In the wrong place at the wrong time. We've always enjoyed having them around outside. I suppose they can be destructive to a garden. But I've never heard of them boring into wood, or even taking up residence in a building as mice will do.

Check, my guess is your mystery continues.

I recently stayed in a house in North Carolina and caught this 'diging' into the wood beam.

I agree, but I couldn’t resist, since I discovered this guy just a few days ago.

Sorry James... I was trying to ask JPRambo on his bee holes.

Ha! Got the culprit, maybe? Don't even know what this is, but could it chew such nice even holes?

Oh man, you got Mayor Pete..... I mean you got Alvin. What will the band do now?
