Squirrels are always entertaining to watch. When it comes to finding food, they are relentless.
Years ago, I bought a small plexiglass bird feeder for my parents. I mounted it outside on a kitchen window about seven feet off the ground. It appeared to be immune from the kind of rodent larceny that squirrels practice regularly. I filled it with sunflower seeds so my Mom could enjoy watching birds feeding up close and personal. It didn't take more than a few hours before we discovered a squirrel in that feeder, packing its cheeks with seeds.
The very entertaining video link below follows a determined squirrel making its way through an impossible gauntlet of obstacles to collect its reward.
