My new birdfeeder has been up for several weeks now. So far it has proven to be squirrel proof. Today I watched as six gray squirrels sat underneath my two feeders eating the leftovers the birds had thrown to the ground. Now that I have conquered the squirrels (at least temporarily), I can appreciate them more. One came up on the deck to drink water from the bird bath. It had muscular little legs and a intelligent look. Squirrels aren't so bad WHEN THEY'RE NOT EATING THE BLACK SUNFLOWER SEEDS THAT COST ME MORE THAN $32 FOR A FIFTY POUND BAG!Sunday, October 30, 2011
