Squirrel Success.

After an entire year my 18" squirrel baffles have proved successful so I have made peace with the little critters. Now they are just photo subjects.

I fought with the critters who continued to get into my bird feeders while suspended on horizontal bear wire (yes there are bears.) The squirrels learned to climb, hang on, and cross the wire to drop on the bird feeders. I finally bought squirrel-proof feeders and now the squirrels stay on the ground. Ah to learn not to fight nature but to live with it is a lesson that applies to people but I've fought that too. Thanks for the post:)

I wish I could live with those bushy tailed rats! I've had them invade my house on several fronts! They have ripped open a roof vent on the side of the house, plus destroyed two exhaust fan vents from a bathroom and hot tub room.
They even naught through the 5/8 sheetrock to get into the bathroom. I have stopped feeding the birds because of them, the racoons, and the bears. The only critters we still feed are the hummingbirds. The deer love our house so much almost every year we find a newborn fawn either on the back or side of the house.I took the photo from my office window.

They sure are cute little critters.
Nice and sharp shooting.

Great photos. Could you please tell me where you bought them and what kind of squirrel proof feeders you use.
Thanks
