"Here birdie, birdie!" In an attempt to draw some of our beautiful backyard birds closer to the porch, I put this little bird feeder on the rail. Over the weekend, the squirrels spilled and ate all the seeds. Then it rained like crazy and the birdfeeder turned into a birdbath. Wish I knew how to keep those pesty squirrels away!

Hey, I've heard that birds like hot pepper, but squirrels don't.They do sell seed with it added and the squirrels don't eat it. I'm not sure if you add your own flakes or spray it lighty to seed you already have, if it would work the same. I guess I can check it out on the internet and find out. If I come up with anything I'll let you know.
