Earlier in the year I took down the pole which was holding the seed feeders and replaced it with a rope. The Grey Squirrel had been finding it too easy to get at the bird food and was eating a disproportionate amount. This way I hoped to slow it down somewhat. It took a few goes for the squirrel to work out the best way to approach the new set up but it soon became adept at balancing:
This morning I managed to grab a short piece of video before it disappeared:
Great shots John and they don't miss a trick do they.
ReplyDeleteRoy: Thanks. Yes they never give up.

ReplyDeleteShirley: Yes the greys are bigger and bulkier than the reds. Initially it fell off a couple of times but like a cat it always landed on its feet.
