Birdseed Marauder

This is the first year where squirrels are attacking my bird feeders.  Up to now, they've had other wild things to attack. But the lot behind me was recently bushwacked and bull dozed, so some of their haunts are destroyed.  Either a squirrel baffle is called for, or a peanut feeder for them. So far, there are 3.  This one being the most acrobatic.  Sort of like an otter, leaving his snack on stomach and grabbing a seed now and then.

Buy Local

Here is my morning purchase from Alderbook Gardens - a hop, skip and jump in the neighborhood.

Includes cosmos, dianthus, petunia, coral bells, and a bunch of other stuff.  Now I have to do something with them!
