Jodi, your squirrel story is "bubba"licious. As to determining the sex, I didn't even think about the fact that the squirrel would be "sitting up" at the feeder, duh. I usually only see them scurrying around with with all fours on the ground so I thought those Wyoming squirrels must have some kind of prominent difference between the sexes that I wasn't aware of.

Salt 'n pepper, I have never seen or heard of a flicker but it's coloring is amazing. Around here if I saw a bird that colorful I would think it was someone's cockatiel or similar that had escaped. When I get some time I want to go read more about them.

Opal, that was a funny story. I probably would have peed my pants if I had been crouched down and then started to get attacked by birds. It reminded me of a recent clip on America's funniest videos where a wild turkey was relentlessly stalking/attacking a postman. The home's security camera caught it all and it was funny to watch the postman try to fend off that very determined turkey.

Have a great day everyone! --robyn
