Rodent vs. Rodent at the feeder!

[Excavator]

This would have been a great video. These shots are the best I could get with the Sony, shooting through the patio door.

Meet Lucy, she enjoys the Rodent WWF every day:



In this corner, we have Big Red! He weighs in at 10.25 lbs and claims to be 6' tall. He holds firmly in the belief that he owns this yard and everything in it. :



In this corner, we have Chip! Chip weighs in at 1/4 lb. and is 2 1/2" tall. Chip prefers to keep a low profile unless he's getting a little hungry for some special treats:



Big Red's son checks the feeder for freshness and signals to Big Red all is well:



Chip is hungry and tired of waiting in line. He's headed towards Son of Big Red!



Son of Big Red dives in, oblivious to what is heading his way. Chip circles and comes up behind:



Wasting no time, Chip takes Son of Big Red by surprise! Mr. Woodpecker waits on the left to steal a bite. (fuzzy pic, the action was fast):



Skinny gray prefers hanging out with the Doves, same food, a lot less trouble.



Here, Skinny can be king!

Sunflower seeds are getting downright expensive, but it's worth it.

Many is the sparrow I have seen defeat a hawk.

Hard to keep those squirrels out of the feeders. I know what you mean about feed. Between the hummingbird feeders and the wild bird seed, they are eating me out of house and home.
