Funny we live rural wooded..but started feeding squirrels when we had albino squirrels and they were so neat to see…mixed white and black or pure albino. Well, it turned into feeding all the squirrels shelled peanuts or a favorite hand feeding of pecan sandies. Squirrels are problem solvers and I rather have them eating from me than trying to get up in the bird feeders….which we have problem solved to no way can they get to them. But we also have a deer feeder and put out corn, apples, grapes, lettuce, and carrots and those squirrels will eat all of that too! We decided to live in nature, so we are in their territory and enjoying the view.
