Hunting Squirrel feeder deployed

Be careful mate peanut butter can be toxic to dogs ---here is some info from the net--

Peanut butter can be a safe and enjoyable treat for dogs, but it must be free of xylitol and given in moderation to avoid health risks.​

Key Safety Considerations​

Xylitol Toxicity: The most critical warning is that peanut butter containing xylitol is highly toxic to dogs. Xylitol is a sugar substitute that can cause a rapid insulin release, leading to hypoglycemia, seizures, liver failure, or even death. Symptoms of xylitol poisoning include weakness, collapse, staggering, lack of coordination, and seizures. Always check labels carefully, as even “natural” or sugar-free peanut butters may contain xylitol

Well I never.
Mind you it wasn't intentionally fed to the thieving little bag

THEY WILL COME,
Good Luck mitch21

How are the Grey's going to access the feeder ...is it a lifting lid or food out on the tray?

Looks to be the same sub adult becoming a regular though

Is the bottle for a hydration break ...
If that were my feeder that grey would be having a lie down by now.

It's set up as a drinker, just a bit of extra attraction plus it'll do the birds some good too.

Yeah his time is coming but the feeder has only been out a week and I want to see it get a bit more established before I go whacking anything off it

 

[Hyperion]

Still just the same youngster on a regular basis.

Would like to see a bit more activity before I start hanging around with lethal intentions
