I bought the big bag of bird seed. Let the squirrel fattening (and occasional bird-feeding) begin.

Ground hog also......I had left my bird feeder down from the winter a few years ago & dang if a ground hog didn't come waddling across my deck & help himself to the bird feed.....but mostly the fat squirrels took over after hibernation ended. This year was so warm that I don't think the squirrels ever hibernated......they have been a nuisance all along.....but I love them soooo I don't mind feeding them either.

I actually thought you were going to say....let the ice cream social begin...I would have been game for that also.

If you mix chilis in with the seeds the squirrels (or any other mammals) will leave it alone. Birds have no receptors for capsaicin, so they won't even notice.
