Squirrels, now they are one kind of animal I strive to outsmart. They can be the cause of great frustration as they steal all my bird food. They have pulled feeders apart and spilt food everywhere, and I have had to take some drastic measures; hanging feeders on the washing line, running outside waving my arms, even scaring him off with a water pistol (a little too extreme!).
But now, I will put up with it no more, I have bought: Squirrel buster +! It was rather expensive for a feeder costing £30
I put it up in the garden, not in the place I want it, so I might move it. I filled it up and walked away and about 7 seconds after I left a Blue Tit was on it! and for the first time I was looking forward to the Squirrel paying a visit. Unluckily I think the Squirrel visited when I wasn't looking, because as I looked outside I saw it sitting there looking suspiciously at it, and resolving to go for Black-sunflower seeds instead.
