Three leaves broken off sunflower plant next to bird feeder... chipmunk?

Yesterday I put a pole to support the plant during yesterday's crazy winds, but then today I saw a chipmunk climbing the pole to try to reach the feeder.  So, I went out and removed the pole (since the winds are done).  But then this evening, I'm seeing three leaves broken off, all on the side of the feeder -- I'm pretty sure it's the chipmunk who caused these sunflower leaves to break, while trying to climb the plant to reach the bird feeder.  (One of the leaves broke off in the past week or so, but I'm quite sure two of the leaves broke today.

It's a wonder the squirrels haven't been an issue with the feeder at all this year...
