Text on frame: Squirrels are clever and persistent animals. While many companies sell bird feeders which are supposedly "squirrel-proof", very few of them really are.

This is evidenced by extensive recipes for its preparation found in cookbooks including The Joy of Cooking. They are primarily arboreal.
