Yo bbc,

Better keep an eye on yoer feeded. If Mr. Squirrel defeats it then he will teach every squirrel within miles how to do it and that is not good fir the birds... You may find that you have just entered into a new phase of yer life where you are like in this big chess game with the squirrels. Now, I love 'em but I love the birds too and so you have to be mindfull that the birds will spill enough to keep te squirrels happy so don't feel at all guilty for trying to outwit the squirrels. They don't mind. Really. It gives them new problems to try and solve...

But don't forget, if you get snow where you live, to keep some dried corn around to throw out under the birdfeeder when it snows...
