CoastalWx Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 The squirrels are killing me. I have a squirrel Proof feeder but the SOBs are performing trapeze acts to get it. It worked last year. I’ll have to get those polls and hang it from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no squirrel proof feeders, but haven't seen a squirrel on one since I put a certain type of baffle up a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they work well as long as you have a baffle underneath there. Also make sure they are far enough away from branches and other launching points. Those SOBs were actually launching from a tree trunk when I first put them up so I had to move them further away. The green feeder that the deer was eating out of is awesome. Don't even need a baffle for it...since it closes when too much weight is put on the perch. Of course, the deer doesn't need to step on the perch like a squirrel does so it manages to scarf a bunch of my seed, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Pretty cold March on the whole for the country and New England relative to normal. I wasn't paying attention I guess as I didn't realize how sustained the chill was here this month. Since the normals are rising and mean temperatures are going up, below normal is probably harder to "feel." -5.1 at 1V4 -4.5F locally at MVL -4.2F at MPV -1.5 at BTV *One of these is not like the others. Widespread chill. -20.2 departure for March at BZN Bozeman, MT. Holy crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

March 2012 had the record-crushing warmth, but overall both March and April were milder here in 2010 than in 2012. The highs/lows for March in those years can illustrate. March 2012 range was 80/-10, a 90° span that's the greatest I've recoded anywhere for any month. (2nd is 87° in Fort Kent: 40/-47 in Jan 1979.) March 2010 got only to 64, but the low was a mere 11, the only time in 21 years that March failed to record a subzero minimum - not even sub 10. Every day Feb 8 thru March 25 was AN, a 46-day run that's nearly twice the next longest such streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that was only 2 weeks after the biggest snowfall I've ever measured and we still had nearly 4 feet on the ground, down from the 65" peak. Currently 4.4° BN for the month. Having winter's coldest morning (-20 on 3/8) helped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbenedet Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Sky is fairly bright/mostly cloudy already with temp in mid 40’s. I think this turns out to be a really nice day here, by early spring “back-door” standards. SE wind with warm low levels and late March sun ftw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
