Yep, I have my bird feeder on a thin metal pole, and a squirrel still managed to get up there. So I got an upside down cone thingy, placed on the pole under the bird feeder and he can't get around that, so it worked. :)

It's under the awning until I get gutters on the shed, and so we can watch out the window. I made a baffle that stopped them for a few weeks but one of them figured out a way around it.

It's a birdbuddy. Solar roof, 2k video. Got it for Christmas. I actually cropped the logos out of that shot so I didn't look like I was shilling. You can't share a video without your username and city, which I don't love. Here is a sample vid of a breeding pair of cardinals
