You remember this situation from a previous blog post? |
Well, that squirrel is about to go on a diet. We have a new strategy to deal with those critters:
The new improved squirrel inhibitor bird feeder pedestal thingy. |
So far, so good. No squirrels yet. |
The birds are pretty active in this cold weather here. They queue-up in the trees then swoop in for their turn at the feeder.
Bluejay waits for a turn. |
This robin is the first that we've seen this winter. I'm guessing that it's going to work its way back up north. |
And yes, we still have deer in the yard. This day we counted eleven at the same time, it was a record. |
As cold as it's been, they are moving slow. On this day they hunkered down for a while to wait out the cold. |
But a deer has to eat, so they get right back to grazing. Yum. |
Damn, that's good stuff! |
What? Time to go? OK, I'm outta here. |
