Made myself a couple of feeders to keep them off the bird feeders since they scare away the small birds.

That's a neat idea. So does it work at keeping them out of the bird feeder or are they still pigs? ;)

Well it works sometimes, they will still go to one of the feeders, depends on the squirrel I think.

Great ideas! My birdfeeders look booby-trapped. We have tried so many different ways to keep them out, and we did for almost a year. But all it takes is ONE wise squirrel and then they're all back in the feeders. I just keep the dog on the deck now, and that seems to do the trick.;)

The turtles are doing great, we did have to separate one of them since it was feeling to frisky and bothering the other ones.

You trophy seems to be pretty secure not for lack of trying on my part though.:D
