This Was Not Good News

I filled my feeders with hot pepper birdseed to discourage my free-loading squirrel moochers. It worked! No matter how many times Syd went back to investigate, the result was still the same. No sale. Until he jumped up on this chair and found something to nibble. Upon further reflection, I think he found a few leftover seeds from an earlier scattering. At least that’s what I’m hoping. Today he was back but this spot held no appeal.
He gets 10/10 for persistence!

Persistent little bugger! I've never heard of hot pepper birdseed. How is it the birds still like it, I wonder?!

@aikiuser Apparently it burns the lips, which of course birds don’t have.

@allie912 Aahhh... Makes sense.

Maybe if you got rid of the decoy it would stop luring him back in ;-)

@timerskine LOL! You may be right!
