Squirrels One Me Zero

Three more bird feeders were torn apart by busy squirrels.
I leave them up as a reminder to never buy this type again.
They are yellow and blue, a gorgeous contrast
To the red, silver and brown ones I leave up on the next tree
Additional reminders of other kinds of bird feeders my squirrels can destroy.
Each adds a bit of color to the yard.

Darlene De Beaulieu May 3, 2021 at 4:42 PM Hello Caren, bird feeders are for the birds. Yet the squirrels find a way to get up to the bird feeders to eat the seeds. They should stick to peanuts. Hugs Darlene Darlene De Beaulieu May 4, 2021 at 7:59 AM Hello Caren, are you sure that you are not putting spinach into the bird feeders? LOL.Don't feed them spinach. Hugs Darlene Caren Krutsinger May 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM I have to admit my squirrels have super strength Darlene

Sam Kauffman May 3, 2021 at 12:58 PM Oh Caren, I can really relate to this experience of frustration spoken with your humor! Just discovered our four footed furry critters ate all of the blossoms from my Bartlett pear tree along with all of our nectarines! Grr! The battle continues! Blessings as we gird our loins and take up the quest! Caren Krutsinger May 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM I have to tell you my squirrels destroy my bird feeders. They drop them on the ground and break them too.

Line Gauthier May 3, 2021 at 7:13 AM You've got a funny way of keeping score. By my calculations it's you zero squirrels three or four ~ lol Caren Krutsinger May 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM Squirrels are probably up 12 to 14 by now. I do not "do" math Line.
