Squirrel Shenanigans

More Eastern Gray Squirrel photos as promised!

My backyard at sunrise

In the above photo, you can see my feeders and bird bath moved forward to be close to my back porch (bottom left corner) from the line of trees in the back left so I could maintain them easier after the winter storm.

Now enter the hungry squirrels.  They cannot find any food or water either.

The squirrel makes it and up he goes!

“Hi!  I just gotta shimmy up this pole!”

 

“I made it!  Hmmm…what do we have here?”

 

Munch…munch…munch…
$$…$$…$$…$$

 

It sure is yummy!

To keep them away from the feeders and wandering on my back porch, I started casting bird seed far out on top of the ice/snow.  It’s been working just as well for them as the birds!

 

 

Yes, squirrels, I love you at a distance!

  1. Ya gotta love squirrels! At my local audubon the cast seeds all around the feeders, as well. Juncos, Jay’s and other birds enjoy this as well.
    Boy oh boy, your yard is beautiful!
