Aack! The deer and squirrels staged a raid on my birdfeeders. I attach a small plastic tray to the bottom of the my feeders so the ground feeding birds can eat at the feeders. This tray also catches any seed that falls out of the feeders making it unpopular with squirrels. It is attached with a plastic screw which is difficult to tighten properly. So the clever deer whacked the tray until it fell off. Then they knocked the feeder until most of the seed came out creating a feast for deer and squirrels. A very smart squirrel chewed the plastic screw so I can't reattached the tray. I didn't see this happen but the culprit(s) left hoof prints. Deer like birdseed too! Very amusing. I ordered a new plastic screw.
