Red-Squirrel Bully

We have amazing birds at our feeder—cardinals, tufted titmice, gold finch, chickadees, downy woodpeckers to name a few—but we also have the nastiest lil’ red squirrel. He/she’s so little and light, that our critter-proof feeder doesn’t work. It’s like an all-you-can-eat buffet. But he’s also so nasty that I watched him stand on his haunches and fight off a gray squirrel twice his size and win.
