abundance of birds fly in, nibble, fly out again
between gossiping together now and then
last week the feeder was completely nil
I watched, I waited, a fat squirrel came to fill
at the feeder one morning, I was at brunch
uh, oh unhappily it was exactly like my hunch

We had squirrel issues with our corn cobs. They’d steal the whole thing. I thought it was funny.

Squirrels or birds probably all want to eat something, but the bird feeder is for the birds.

Maybe time to get a hummingbird feeder. Squirrels don’t bother them. If you have some kind of a water fountain, the other birds will still come around, but the squirrels will go elsewhere.
Good use of the prompt word.

I used to lay in wait with my broom and chase the squirrels around the yard. They used to make faces at me and laugh. Nice six.
