Fail!
03/15/2012
I'm off to the Chicago Flower & Garden Show today. While I'm gone, I thought you might enjoy seeing one of my squirrel-proof bird feeders . . . in action!
As you can see . . .
it works like a charm!
Fail!
(To be fair, this is one of those really tiny Red Squirrels. The fat Gray Squirrels don't fit at all. They just sit on the ground and wait for this guy to spill.)
Oooo, the rotten little thing. Hopefully he won't grow too fat to slither out and cause you further grief!

Oh my....these guys are cute and pests at the same time!
I had a neighboor that he was in a costant battle of wits with his squirrels and they always won!!!
Very furstrating to him and funny to my then young children to observe :)

I always tell Dale, squirrels have to eat, too. But yeah, I get it and they are little piggies!

Look at that little bugger! They are clever though...you gotta give them that. They have outsmarted almost all the "squirrel proof" feeders that I've ever had.

SoFunny!My experience is - if they want it they'll get it.

He must be confused--the little guy usually loses in nature.

I saw a video of a Droll Yankee squirrel-proof feeder. It is hilarious:
