So we have had some squirrels stealing most of the bird seed from our backyard feeder and we read that a slinky can keep them from climbing the pole. So we hung a slinky the other day to see if it would work. Well, we looked out and danged if there wasn't a squirrel chowing down while hanging on the feeder. No idea how it had got past the slinky. It wasn't until yesterday I saw just how they were getting up there. So I grabbed the camera and put together a little video showing how clever these little guys can be!
