Squirrels and birds alike gather at this backyard bird feeder! There is a layer of icy snow on the ground, and the bird feeder is a popular hangout! The squirrels who frequent this bird feeder are big-boned and beautiful! We're wondering - if there is plenty of food, why are the squirrels territorial?? Also spotted: chikadees, finches, and a dove. Brookings, South Dakota; USA
