True, Suzy., so true. If they confined themselves to eating off the ground, ti would be ok, but jumping up onto the bird feeder and stealing the bird food is not ok!!! :-|
They DO do a lot of damage, Irene. Grey squirrels, for that matter, can, too. We had one come down our chimney many years ago, and it chewed the bottom of the door to the basement (trying to get into the kitchen) quite nastily. We caught it in a live trap, took it about a block or two away to let it go, and it beat us back to our yard!!!
I put a dish on the ground with seed, cookies and nuts, and yes, they are messy. They can't get on my feeders because of the new baffle I have. I have a hanging dish on another pole with peanuts in it, they love that. Love watching them. Thanks for the nice picture..
