Another visitor to one of the bird feeders this morning - so that's where all the black sunflower seeds go!

"Baffle? It doesn't baffle me"

Resourceful little varmints aren't they?

[angieh]

The sunflower seed feeder is easy pickings DM - not so the plastic hooded one you can see the top of in the picture. I watched a squirrel trying to hang on to that yesterday and it near as a ninepin fell off, it's very slippery and the squirrel couldn't get a proper hold on it. It was quite funny to watch - the squirrel wouldn't have had far to fall.

Well I think they're cute . . . :cool:

What a great shot Angie:D I like them for their looks but not for the damage they can do...:roll:

[dandysmom]

Thanks for the warning, Angie, but I had to look! Bah! Thieving tree rat will eat you out of seed in no time, and probably bring all his friends, relatives and Uncle Tom Cobbleigh too!

I think they are cute too but can understand why people dont like them.
I used to love watching SuzyQ trying to chase the red squirrels at Carnie woods, red's are much cuter too.

I love them too. A neighbour of ours used to feed one the same one everyday for ages he also came in pinched nut etc but she was bothered and she also once had a pet crow called colin which went everwhere with her he lived outside and only left when they had to move a shed.

This squirrel hater was reminded of the old song lyrics:

Looked like an angel
Walked line an angel
Talked like an angel
But I got wise
She's the devil in disguise.....

Spawn of Satan! :-D

Do you get the impression I don't care much for them ???

[angieh]

Bobby Darin?????

[dandysmom]

Elvis, Angie. May have been covered by others, but that's the one I'm familiar with ......

[calismum]

love the song . . . . hate the squirrels, I too have them in the garden chasing of the little tits and finches. Even the bigger birds wait back. We also have a couple of magpies who are proving very agile.

Shame you can't have a door policy for the garden isn't it?

[angieh]

Yes, of course it was the King! Apologies to Elvis - just thought I heard a different voice in the earworm (sorry, not sure that's the right word Eileen!?)

[dandysmom]

Earworm it is! And of course that song did get stuck in mine as soon as I'd typed the lyrics ...Ring of Fire is there now, can't get rid of it!!

We got a new "oldies" radio station this Spring, and I'm delighted at hearing my old favorites again!
