Geez, the war never ends. My bird feeders have been pretty safe lately, tho if we get alot of rain, the oil washes off the pole and they can sometimes climb up.

What's happening now is the stooopid critters have decided they like my pansies as a snack. So they'll plop their fat bellies onto the deck railing and leaning over munch to their hearts delight. My pansies were in full bloom and now they're down to stems.

I'm not even sure they're actually eating them. They may well be biting them off out of spite. But then, I'm not seeing any pansy bits on the ground or deck so...guess they're eating em. Little boogers.
