"Squirrel-proof": an ideal, not a reality

Aug 24, 2008 15:37

My mom has a "squirrel-proof" bird feeder. Among other precautions, the top fastens on so the squirrels can't get into the body of the feeder.

Today I was at her place and what do I see but a minion of Nutsy with his face in the feeder! He had managed to untwist the top somehow and was stuffing his furry cheeks on sunflower seeds.

Mom isn't a minion or devotee of Nutsy like I am, and she won't accept that the squirrel is my totem. So she made me go out and fasten down the feeder so the squirrels can't get into it.

Oh Great and Powerful Lord Squirrelmort, forgive me for my sins.
