Squirrel Acting Squirrelly In My Backyard

Some consider the little rodents a pest. For us they are entertaining. If we put a corn cob out, they don't eat it. They run around burying the kernels one by one everywhere, never to be found again. Perhaps it's their job in nature to reseed not to eat. If so they do an exhaustive job working their furry tails off.

In this video, the wife put out an apple for the birds. Yeah right.. not with a squirrels in mind. They hog up on everything. We tried everything and it's "everything" that they like. :-)

Watch this little bugger work his butt off. Sliding down, crawling up again. Quite the little acrobat!

They never give up.. well maybe. At the end he said the hell with it and went over to the bird seed laying on the ground for easier pickings. Hey, even a rodent only has so much determination.

Pardon the lack of clarity. I've zoomed in on a video from one of my surveillance cameras, but you get the idea.
