We have tons of squirrels here and it's really kind of fun watching them try to get into the bird feeders. I have a Bird feeder hanging from a tree limb with a clear plastic dome hanging over it. The squirrel will come down the chain and then be spread eagle over the top of the plastic dome. When they try to get to the feed from there they always fall off. Then I have 2 feeders that are inside a wire cage. Most of the squirrels are too big to get inside but one little guy can do it. When I see him in there I go outside and watch him panic because he has forgotten how to get out. Quite entertaining, but then I am easily amused. ;9)

You just perfectly described one of my feeders. It's a green tube feeder with a cage built around it to keep squirrels out. There used to be one or two squirrels who would squeeze in there, and then I'd walk out and they'd go hysterical and run in hi-speed loops around the interior of the feeder until it finally occurred to him/her that they could go back out through the bars again.

Tremendously amusing. =P

Nowadays however, the squirrels simply knock the feeder off its mount and roll it off.
