They're so smart. And the red ones seem to be fearless

@danmccullough I had to actually pull our bird feeder today and put up the upside down suet feeders back up with hot pepper suet. The squirrels were spending all day raiding the feeder and none of the birds were getting to it. Mind you I was using safflower seeds laced with hot pepper concentrate and they were eating it like candy.

@darwinwoodka Super fearless. The Gray Squirrels (mostly) keep their distance!

@danmccullough "Red squirrels will very occasionally take birds' eggs or chicks"
just saying , that's forward planning! 🥲

@danmccullough building your home where it rains food, genius level

[danmccullough@ecoevo.social]

@Sober_Guy Lol. I find the hot pepper concentrate items do a great job at not attracting bears, but other critters kind of snicker at it.

@danmccullough a red squirrel showing the forward planning some humans choose not to use.....
