[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a squirrel-proof bird feeder. :-) I could probably produce a manual on how to defeat the thing. Each squirrel has his/her own unique technique. They seemingly don't learn from each other but reinvent their own personal methods. One has yet to defeat it and becomes visibly annoyed. He is the only one that falls for pulling on the front lever which closes off the seeds. I should probably take a photo of him to send to the manufacturer. They might find it satisfying.

Shot at 1/250s F/14 135mm ISO-1600! Fill flash.

Enjoy,
Reid

ha ha Yep, send a photo of this to the manufacturer. Now you have to give the squirrel credit for ingenuity and determination though.

Great shot of a humorous moment!

Hi reid,
nice moment capture,very good.

Hello Reid,
They seem to have an amazing body control, like here... doesn't seem to matter if the surface is wood or metal or what!
Funny moment, great catch!
Greetings,
