For the past year i have been keen to encourage the visits of our feathered friends to the garden by hanging up various bird feeders. More birds in the garden will encourage more insect eaters too which should help with the garden. Well that is the theory anyway.
The problem is, squirrels are keen to cash in on this free food supply too! I have bought a bird feeder stand to try and stop squirrels from taking the bird food, they can get their own nuts! Whether this bird feeder will succeed or not is the question of course. I have my doubts that anything can stop a determined squirrel!
