Default PHOTO OF THE WEEK, Super Squirrel

This week we have another amazing squirrel story to tell. We hung a
sunflower seed feeder from a branch of a giant Cottonwood, high enough off
the ground that it was impossible for them to jump up to and far enough away
from the tree that they could not jump over to it, so we thought.

I think you may need to view these.... (the full length show is
apparently not available in the U.S.)

"These video clips are from the film, Daylight Robbery II, a BBC
documentary on the `ingenious feeding habits` of the squirrel. Includes the
remarkable obstacle course........"

I first saw this on PBS and they showed each step of the obstacle course
as they added to it and the squirrel figuring it out. I swore I'd try my
hand at this one day. What a shame it's not available.
