Mystery solved

Now I know why my birdfeeder's been coming up empty every day.




There's a pair of these bushy-tailed rats that are cleaning it out. I should shoo them off, but they're so funny to watch that I just can't do it.

  3. I guess their agility and creativity is somewhat admirable. ;)

  4. Still bushy-tailed rats tho. :-)

    And what are the birds supposed to eat? I used to have some nice blue jays and cardinals at the feeder until the squirrels chased 'em off.

    And the squirrels attract the neighbor's cats, which sends Lagniappe right over the edge since he can't get outside to get them.

    Unintended consequences of a bird feeder... argh!
