Hi, Tweets

I'm curious, in regard to all you feeders of copious amounts of suet: don't
you have squirrels? In my yard (it's heavily forested here), I have pole
guards plus the domed clear plastic covers for almost all of my feeders. It
gets expensive. My one suet feeder, which is an old-fashioned net bag from
the produce department filled with beef suet, has an overhead "dome" since
it's hanging from a tree limb. My only other suet-type feeder hangs from
the eaves, but has morphed into a flying squirrel feeder. That's okay, but
I have a healthy band of at least a dozen grey squirrels, not to mention
the native Douglas squirrels, and all will, as you all know, get into
anything they can.

My question: what do you do to protect your suet from squirrels? Perhaps
others have methods I haven't thought of or tried.

Cheers, Diann
