And, I learned that wherever you have bird feeders, you also have squirrels. Persistent, greedy, clever squirrels who will rob you and your birds of all seed.

Most often encountered near to the village bearing the same name, this abundant grasshopper ultimately sprouts large wings and forms swarms which can decimate crops. A Squirrel Cuckoo was also bounding along the branches with their smaller relative. A Squirrel Cuckoo batters a grasshopper high in the canopy.
