Ya BN, that feeder worked for years til this smart arse showed up. He puts both hind feet on the pole, snakes around with one leg under the closer bar, which prevents it from closing, and one on top sooz he can reach in with his head and get the seed.
I'd shoot him in a minute, cept i got this nosey neighbor who would turn me in. Friend of mine got caught using his 22 and had to go to court. Cost him $1000 fine, but worse they confiscated all his guns, and as a hunter he had 6.
I'll try the have a hart with some peanut butter, spray his tail pink and take him 5 miles away and see if he comes back.
