Can you see what's wrong with this picture, beside the fact that the squirrel is eating the birds food? We don't have many squirrels, but the ones we have are very clever. I don't seem to be able to outsmart them. The squirrel guard is on the pole to keep the squirrels out of the feeder. However, this little guy simply jumps above it and then climbs the pole. Looks like I need to do a little research on how high they can jump and then try raising the squirrel guard, or get a taller pole.
The thing is they are pretty fun to watch even if they are eating the birds food. I have tried putting corn out for them, but then the Stellar Jays eat the corn. I sure wish these guys knew what was on their own menus.
