Foiled Again!

We are having a blizzard this morning so the bird feeder is a VERY popular spot. This is a squirrel (and large bird) proof feeder - when something too heavy lands on the perch the holes close. Sorry, squirrel! Hunt for dropped seeds on the ground.

wow that is a terrific capture!

[Catriona Baker]

That is definitely a decisive moment shot

I hope he gets something to eat! Captured well!

They are so tricky and innovative to get to the feeder! Great shot against the white background!

[Boxplayer]

Ha! Poor squirrel!

[Valerie Chesney]

stretched to full extent & still no food.
Super capture in the snow.

Ha ha! I always wondered if they really worked!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

This one looks pretty sturdy. I've got one that operates on the same principal and it does keep the squirrels out- until they figure out how to gnaw off the plastic parts on the top! Great stretch- great catch!

@koalagardens @catangus @marshwader @thewatersphotos @boxplayer @happysnaps @pamalama @olivetreeann thank you! I'm pleased with this fun capture! I was shooting images of the birds then suddenly they left - this was why. The squirrel ended up on the ground picking up the TONS of dropped seed.

Ann, this feeder has been great for us. It isn't bear proof (this is our second one) but otherwise it is STRONG!

Great shot. Poor squirrel. I'm guessing he has other nearby dinner options.

@joemuli @mcsiegle thank you! Squirrel found plenty of dropped seeds on the ground.
