What brand of birdfeeder do you prefer? My yard isn't that big and we want to get rid of my pole mounted one and hang one from a tree branch. This means my good buddies the squirrels will have no problem getting to it. I'd like to get a "squirrel proof" feeder but there are tons of them out there. Some of them look pretty good but some look pretty crappy
And here I even provide special feeders to make my squirrels more comfortable.
Considering that I got blaster last night & this morning on another board by someone who really dislikes squirrels in a thread with my local squirrels......
Ah, the ideal one would be self refilling... and built like a tank to raccoon proof it.
I have these metal screened, round feeders with a copper top for easy filling. I gave up on trying to keep the squirrels and raccoon out... now I just make it easy for them so that they don't destroy the feeders trying to pilfer them (consider it a 'cost of doing business). They look nice too.
They used to steal them and pull them out into the woods and I had to go retrieve them... now I use these spring loaded mountain climbers (key chain) rings you can get a Lowes . So far they haven't figured those out... get the big ones and hang the feeder from it.
Has anybody seen my suit feeder... it's been gone for a few days now.
