I’ve had that happen, too, but in this case the whole cage has gone missing. Never found one underneath or nearby, just gone.
I have had that happen a few times. I found one cage a few years later half way up a tree. Impressive!
I now have a squirrel baffle on my feeder pole. Its been working well so far (three years or so).
I started smearing chunky peanut butter on the dogwood trees in my front yard, and the Eastern bluebirds LOVE it, along with the sparrows, finches, wrens and downy woodpeckers. The bigger birds (red bellied woodpeckers, blue jays, mockingbirds, cardinals…) prefer the suet feeder, and adding the peanut butter on the trees gives the little ones a better shot at high calorie yummies. Only downsides so far are greasy looking tree trunks.
Band name!
It’s a tall group, and they maybe don’t wash their hair very often.
Jesus, Tim must be a dick…
I’m pretty sure they’re who kept emptying the hummingbird feeder, unless I put it away for the night. Whoever or whatever it is, doesn’t bother with the rest of the bird feeder (which has the baffles) from which I hung the suet.
Don’t get them mad. or they’ll scream.
Stovepipe trousers for sure!
took me a minute, but…
found it!
Oh gods, I remember that book.

That sign probably seemed like a safer choice than “Caution: Superfund site”
