We love to feed the birds and leave feed out for them all year around. The feeders have wire cages around them to make them "squirrel-proof" but the squirrels don't know this and work on them anyway. They are fun to watch too.
Well caught Bill - that squirrel appears to be camera-shy! Look at all that blossom, ours is still in tight bud! Never mind, something to look forward to.
The only thing this photo is missing is the "cross hairs" of a pellet rifle. It's the only thing that will truly squirrel proof a bird feeder. Well, that or a pair of red tail hawks in the neighborhood.
I wasn't sure what to expect when I saw the title, so you caught me off guard. I don't mind squirrels, but I put my foot down at mice!!! Man, the blossoms in that picture! Wowie!!!
Sweetie and son got me a bird feeder just like the one you have. I've had it two weeks and I am still waiting, camera in hand, for a squirrel attempt on it.

To my mind the entertainment value of a squirrel at the bird feeder outweighs the aggravation. God loves squirrels too.

Chez nous aussi, toutes les haies de lilas (violet et blanc) sont en fleurs et l'air embaume !
Bisous.
