Squirrely Determination

The squirrels are at it again. They outsmarted me with their agility in the last configuration of my platform bird feeder that was made from a smaller plywood base and a larger metal platform. They managed to wrangle themselves around by using the plywood and a gripping point. Therefore I placed metal underneath as well, figuring the flat non grip surface would hinder them for sure. Well, it seems that the squirrels really proved their contortionist ability in their latest attempts. Dogged determination is what it took with many attempts. The footage below shows the last few attempts until they were successful. Now I have to figure out what else I can do!
