Uninvited Guests at Squirrel Feeder!

(Seattle)

In an attempt to keep the squirrels out of my bird feeders, I built and mounted a squirrel feeder at the opposite end of my backyard. Well, I never expected that the squirrels would have a problem with pesky birds getting into their feeder! I caught the action on video of Stellar Jays harassing those poor squirrels to get at their dinner.

Great video, Judy. I think you could call it; "How to Drive Blue Jays Mad With Desire."
Did you buy or make your squirrel feeder?
Happy Squirreling!

 Don't feed Squirrels NEW

Squirrels are vermin and pests. They eat everything in the garden, and all the fruit on the trees.

I can't believe that people build squirrel feeders. They are the last animal that needs to be violated by human feeding them. They are horribly over-populated. Please stop.

Hi,
Great video. I love the jays they give the squirrels a run for their money always stealing their corn and peanuts. The Titmouse is good at it also

I made the squirrel feeder myself from one six- foot plank of cedar fencing. It was really easy.

    A relative went to HB class. They found it is safe and more effective to use 2 water to 1 sugar. I use 4 cups of boiling water into 2 cups sugar.
