love those little buggers!! I read an article the other day as I was getting things ready to feed the birds over the winter, and it suggested mixing chili powder in with the seeds and stuff, as birds are apparently immune to the effects! but it deters squirrels as they can't tolerate the effect. I have always got squirrels in my garden as I back onto a small woodland so i might try it and see what happens

If the birds enjoy it worth a try, would be happy to invite all to the feeder....
