20200106 3543, 3554 SERIES - Black Squirrel and N. Cardinal.jpg

Our Yard

Two images of an Eastern Gray Squirrel trying to figure out how to get to my new suet feeder. Up until now, the score is Squirrels 10, Me 0. Somehow they always figure it out after a few days of studying the set-up from every angle. So far its been four days and counting.

Nikon D500 ,Nikkor 200-500 mm VR
1/1000s f/7.1 at 390.0mm iso3600 full exif

Hope your new set up keeps the squirrels away. Nice set of images and captions.

Terrific humor and captures. I really enjoyed this drama with the cardinal seemly unfazed. It can be tough to outsmart a squirrel as I have found out in the past. VV

I love both of these images and your captions, very funny Hank.V

Great series with the captions.

I think you will get even now!

I don't think the squirrel will make it....delightful captures, Hank...V

Squirrels, a continuing struggle with feeders. Good luck.

The Cardinal is having a little chuckle. Nice work and captures.

Great shots, Hank. 15 feet must be a little to far.

it does look a tempting treat with all the millet and sunflower seeds...can't blame the squirrel for trying...good catch..

The squirrel will find a way to get there I'm sure!

Two humorous and lovely shots. I bet the squirrel will eventually win. I've tried all sorts of things but nothing works in the end. I feed the squirrels, and give them lots of food but they want more!

such a lovely presentation.

Jim Coffman 10-Jan-2020 20:27
I think in the end the squirrel will prevail! Nice work, Hank...

Great captures and captions! Funny how the cardinal is taking all its efforts in.
