Yup. That is a mini adirondak chair holding an ear of corn, attached to a tree.
Earlier this winter I noticed some uninvited guests eating the food I put out for the birds.
I thought a chair with tasty corn might lure the squirrels away from the bird food.
It cracks me up to see them sitting out on the chair having a snack.
This is one of the funniest ideas ever! :)
ReplyDeleteThey now might expect to find a little umbrella and cocktails in summer though.
That's adorable! Is the corn cooked or raw? Or do you buy special squirrel corn?
ReplyDeleteShannon - it not cooked - it is hard and dried though - what they call "feed corn". I did find it at the pet store as squirrel food.
ReplyDeleteHow funny! :)
ReplyDeleteI tried distracting the squirrels with seed corn one year, but I just ended up with twice as many squirrels and they still ate up all the bird seed. the chair is cute, though.
ReplyDeleteThat's super hilarious! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love this...did you design this yourself? If so, I bet you could sell it on Etsy..... :o)
ReplyDeleteso darn cute!
ReplyDeleteThat is a chubby squirrel! So cute!
ReplyDeleteMeshbetty - no we bought the chair - I wish I had thought of it! Maybe other things for squirrels to sit on - like a motorcycle!
