I like to feed the birds...all birds....wrens, sparrows, cardinals, titmice, doves, woodpeckers, 1 hawk, bluejays, starlings and others that I don't know what they are. Since at some time in the future (2018-2028) we will replace the deck I decided to turn the current structure into a wildlife sanctuary, Of course I say 'wildlife' because when you feed birds you also feed the SQUIRRELS and moles and chipmunks, deer and even a fox. 
I have hung, and poled feeders in the front yard, back yard, woods, and deck and NO MATTER what I do to discourage squirrels they still manage to get the seed. Urine spray, red hot peppers, aluminum foil, (pretty good until the foil falls off) don't usually work.


Little Pearl (or Earl) the squirrel WON the prize .Not only did she eat the seed she got into the feeder, looked at me and continued munching. (see bottom picture)

Now everyone has their own feeding area and the feeder house is retired to be indoor decor !!





What does this have to do with PD? There is a condition in PD called PUNDING .....compulsive, obsessive, repetitive behaviors that leads to no satisfactory conclusion, necessarily, but is continued nonetheless . Some punding can be dangerous like gambling (not me !!) But it is something that challenges the rational mind (me?) Squirrel wars will go on !!!!!

  Happy whatever .
