I give up. I no longer have a bird feeder. I have a squirrel feeder.Squirrels are very important.
>>12878280just put a taller shepherds hook away from any trees or branches and slather the base with petroleum jelly every two days or so. ez.
>>12878325But the sparrows are largely ground feeders and they'd rather eat off the ground. And like I said, I don't mind the squirrels. They're cute and they need food too. And they respect my personal space unlike those fucking mice.
>>12878335if you're worried about sparrows, then drill some holes in the bottom of the basket so when other birds land to feed, it'll shake and some will fall through the ground. in my limited experience, most backyard birds feed at the same time anyways.also fuck squirrels lole, fatasses will eat everything if given the chance
>>12878338squirrels are very important. There's actually a big population of red tailed hawks in this area, and squirrels are their number one food source. So it all ties back into the great cycle of bavi in the end.
>>12878338this SQUANTI (squirrels are not that importantYour fortune: Better not tell you now
>>12878348Squirrels are nature's tree planters. They are important for seed dispersal and plant all sorts of seeds and nuts. I wouldn't be surprised if I see some sunflowers springing up around my lawn thanks to the squirrels stashing bird seed.This makes them very important.
As soon as the first squirrel left, another one came to take his place.
I love all teh creatures
>>12878280wow ultimate cuck move...not only letting the squirrel win but changing everything up to accomodate the fat fucker. i am utterly disgusted right now.
>>12878280Put a mouse trap next to the bird feeder
>>12878280squirrels are neat critters
>>12878684squirrels are tree rats and should be treated as such
>>12878702The difference is that rats invade our homes and businesses and spread filth and disease. Squirrels stay in the trees. And like I pointed out, they're good for the environment because they disperse seeds and plant trees. SQUAVI
