“Monkeys are smart.”

Squirrels, too. Great problem solvers.

Yep, for sure. I watch them trying to figure out how to overcome the baffles on my bird feeders. They succeed occasionally by climbing up in a nearby bush and making a flying leap to the suet hanger, and from there to the regular feeders. They're so industrious and persistent that I actually don't mind if they grab a meal now and then. Fun to watch!
