@WolfmannotJack @OurSquirrels @ScotSquirrels @NatureScot @ScotWildlife @chris_harrod @marioziener @sabi_ri @MarionETodd the only squirrel-proof feeder we have is the one stuck to the middle of the kitchen window. Unfortunately it's not starling-proof, and they empty it into the plant pots below for the squirrel. And it's a grey.

There is no such thing as a squirrel proof bird feeder. Check out the ear tufts on this little marauder. His chum on the squirrel feeder hasn’t earned its tufts yet.

Stoked this is published! Collect feathers > chop into tiny pieces > set them on fire > measure the gasses*. Differences in adults. Now just a small task of learning geographic assignment using multi-isotope isoscapes paired with geolocator data & larger sample size! Let’s gooo!

Deadline for applicants is 3rd January 2025 at noon (iapetus2.ac.uk/how-to-apply/). Any questions about the project, applying or the DTP just drop me an email.
