Spring time visiters to the bird feeder..it's a free for all!

So here I was sitting in the home office last Monday (due to the summer like weather, I played hooky from work).

So.. I look out the window, glancing at the bird feeder.. only to see this "rat" like character in the feeder,stuffing his little rat like face.

And my first thought was, great..I am feeding the neighborhood rats!

So I grabbed my trusty little Olympus (someday I will have a really good camera!) and went out to see for myself... and was relieved to see it was only a greedy squirrel!

The birds were not happy as he (yes I could tell it was a "HE" as he ran up the tree later) was having a real feast...my poor other half keeps filling the feeders grumbling something about how he just can't believe they empty them out so fast...should I tell him?


So, tell me..what uninvited guests do you find visiting you? Possibly feral cats, raccoons, ducks...rabbits?

We have those little bitty bunnies that are all over the place in the spring and summer..they go scampering down our driveway, diving into the woods across the road.

It is a good thing we have invisible fence, or I have some Corgi's who would really be bad dogs and less cute little wild bunnies!
