What you should’ve asked for is one of these: http://www.nixalite.com/twirlasquirrel.aspx
Kinda cute to watch the little rodents hangin on for dear life only to fall off because they’re still dizzy when they try to move.
Yeah, Your probably right. Didn’t do to well at the Gloucester ROTC rifle range back in the day. Can you imagine all the Cape Ann Liberals Up in arms about this now! 🙂
My sister and brother-in-law got our kid a gen-u-wine Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas. He is out of his mind with excitement, and I’m trying my hardest to be excited along with him.
I got one and found out I couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn so I put the feeders on metal poles and load ’em up with grease. Works ’till the sun gets at it.
One of the proudest days of my father’s life was when he built a bird-feeder that was absolutely, no-questions-asked, squirrel-proof. Two layers of wire mesh, big slick clear plastic dome cover, suspended by wire and cables that only an engineer could love, but it worked. High comedy as the squirrels flew off onto the lawn below — the birds knocked down plenty of seed for them anyway.
Nice setup and nice shots here! All I can say is hold on to your nuts there you squirrels – You would be surprised at how many of those nuts these cheeks hold. My wife used to feed one in Colorado springs of the apartment we lived at then…Come up the walk-way tap his little paws on thw sliding glass door to living room to let her know he was awaiting for his peanuts (unsalted raw ones)…:-)
Good idea for the New Years dunk…You comment about moderation a while on some was 100% spot there is a click out there in GMG land! comments never to be seen 🙂 Like you I tell it like it is with the frosting on the cake!
Paul – you would not go to the toruble of putting this up for wildlife if you did not love it…I can tell you also the way I was brought up even on hunting you shoot it you eat it! I understand the humor and i took it as such! Thanks Happy New Year! 🙂
They sell ground red pepper to add to the seed. Squirrels don’t like it but birds do. It won’t hurt them.
Then I fill peanuts in the squirrel feeder and the Blue Jays take them.

This Cape Ann tree hugging coyote kissing liberal thinks it would be OK if you popped a cap in that dude’s ass with a pellet gun.
As long as you only pumped it twice so it would only sting a bit. 😉
