The permanent fixture

There seems to be no keeping these guys away from the feeders; every time I walk by this one, there’s a squirrel hanging around.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

Inquisitive starling, posted earlier:

Nikon Z 7 ,Nikkor AF-S 300/4E PF ED VR with FTZ adapter
1/640s f/5.6 at 300.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

It is called a "feeder"...

I love the position in which you have captured him!
He seems to be caught in the act!

They seem to always find a way to rob the bird feeders. This is a cool shot!

Nice capture of what this one is best at raiding the bird feeders and suet cages.
Tack sharp resolution bokeh is beautiful and the light very nice.

Super catch! V.

Monster up to no good! These little thieves almost inhale suet - it disappears very quickly when they're around and you just have to look at their girth to know they been gorging themselves. https://www.flickr.com/photos/isabel95/11053135343

What a sweet little foodie. V

who can blame it for raiding an easily accessible feeder....hanging a feeder from a clothes line is a good way to save the seed for the birds..
