Fun collage- my husband doesn't think the baffle I bought will work but I think I'll put it on anyway and see what happens. Looks like Nutkin has realized he will not get any food that way.
@illinilass Thanks Dororthy- it may be more of a height issue. The bears have pulled our shepherd's hook over a few times and it's not straight any more. But it's worth a try because my new "squirrel proof feeder" is proving not to be that squirrel proof (no surprise there- they're very clever when it comes to getting seeds!).

So true Ann! Bears were a problem for some friends when I lived in WV. We were close enough to town not to be bothered. You’re so right about clever squirrels. Good luck, sounds like you’re going to need it.
Not sure if you’ll see this, but I will post a picture of our baffle. It won’t work if they can jump from the house or tree!

We try to keep them fed, seeds, water, corn. As cold as it is I don’t know how they survive. We have shrubs, trees and brush type hedgerow nearby.
