I saw how the squirrels are getting around the anti-squirrel baffle I have on my bird feeder rig. I looked out the window just in time to see one of those little rodent pricks simply jump over it. I had been trying to imagine some complicated method they were using to thwart my defenses and it was just an athletic little sucker jumping really high. Asshole.
I went outside and raised it up quite a bit. Hopefully that will be enough. We’ll see.
Following up on the previous post. I looked out the window to make sure the bird feeders survived the night (as you do) and saw a squirrel had made it past the anti-squirrel baffle and was chowing down.
Fuck it. I don’t want to play that anymore either. I give up.
We’re going to see Harry for a few minutes today. If it weren’t for that, I think I would be crashing into a major depression right now.
Fuck it all, I’m going fishing.*
*Not literally. That would take effort and clearly that is beyond me right now.

Interesting outdoor critter. A grey squirrel with a white tail? Is this some sort of squirrel mutant, x-men type critter?
Have you ever wondered what a squirrel sounds like? Here’s a video of a noisy little bastard in our back yard. It’s pretty quiet, so you have to crank up the volume a bit.
Yeah, that’s a skunk digging around under the bird feeder. I just saw a squirrel approach it. He didn’t come too close, and then he ran up a tree. Let us hope that squirrels are smart enough to not get sprayed.
The bastard squirrels ate through the top of the bird feeder. It’s dead.
I will avenge thee, sweet bird feeder!
