Who's taking the odds? My money's on the squirrel, too.

Careful. I was rather astonished when I put out a piece of meat and a squirrel made off with it. Given that I'm not convinced anybody can outsmart a squirrel for any length of time, I'm not looking forward to the day when they realize we're good to eat.

We're just lucky they lack opposible thumbs.

It took them 10 days to figure it out,a young one at that,after blasting off the grill it landed on the suet holder.I opened the door and it just looked at me,walking toward the critter it finally

jumped down and ran up the fence and sat defiantly looking at me..brazen little sucker,if he was a little fatter I would have been eatin squirrel gravy and biscuits.

Since then I moved the grill.

the birds that used to eat at my feeder once I squirrel proofed it would scatter--sunflower seed to the ground for em --I think the critters around here are unionized -- freeloaders local 101

...great post worldtalker Perfect pictures and good info! My neighbor strings those plastic red Dixie cups along the metal arm to the feeder (open-side to open-side), and for the past couple of years no squirrel has got past. But very funny to watch them try.

Heh...not likely...stainless steel wire.

And your point is? It'll just slow em down a bit trust me, my old neighbor had some that thought electrical wiring was hordorves.

Not unless they have teeth like this.

Close. We tried to proof his house and SS screening slowed em down a bit but not much. We replaced some 12/2 wire went to dinner maybe 2 hours. When we came back they had already stripped about three feet of insulation & almost chewed through the ground. Only thing left was his blow gun & broadhead darts. Hated to see em dead, but wirings expensive & risk of the house burning down made that decision easy.

Two weeks and some of them have it down pat,they still can't get by that disk,but....this one LAUNCHED from the fence to the feeder,I shot it hoping to catch him mid flight,click twice to zoom in,came to a sudden stop hitting the suet feeder hook.That's a LOOONG way.


Well...back to taking pictures..of the same things.


GOD Bless
