Determination

I've mentioned before it's like Wild Kingdom in our backyard.  One of our favorite things is watching all the birds eat at our two bird feeders.  At any given time, we've seen up to ten different species eating within a ten-foot radius!  We buy squirrel-proof feeders because our squirrels are greedy and like to dump ALL of the birdseed on the ground at one time.

Well, the squirrels don't know the feeders are "squirrel-proof":


We watched this guy try every acrobatic position he could think of to get to the seed.  Sorry, buddy, you'll have to eat acorns instead.

Awwwwwwwww poor guy... We don't have squirrels in our yard at all, like ever to eat our birdseed. However, we do have a ton of rabbits that eat my flowers. ARGH!

What about squirrel food? Corn? My grandparents have those in their yard on a tree and they are so fat! Love it.

We've got about 10 oak trees. Trust me, they've got plenty to eat!
