Peanit Thief!

Category: Bird Brain Blog | Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2010 3:36 pm

I went out to feed the birds this morning. I got all bundled up as it was only 25 deg. F. I filled the feeder, put 7 peanuts in the suet cage and stuck 5 peanuts into a piece of fence I have up there. Came in, got unbundled and sat down in my recliner and looked out at the feeder. There were only 2 peanuts in the suet cage. Five had gone missing in about 15 minutes. So I sat there for a while and sure enough the theif came back. A Titmouse grabbed one and flew off. Five minutes later he was back and filched the last one. I read for about 20 minutes and looked out again. The five peanuts in the fence had shrunk to 2.
He came back and tried to get them, but they were wedged in too tight, he couldn't get them loose!
