You can expect to see more squirrel activity at your bird feeders
this time of year. That's because squirrels stockpile seeds and nuts in
hidden caches for the winter. They bury them in the ground--sometimes
right in the middle of the lawn--and in openings in tree trunks.
Squirrel-proof
feeders and baffles will help keep them away from the bird food. Or you
can just give in and feed them. They love peanuts, corn and sunflower
seeds.
Happy Birding!
