Very determined? That's just Tuesday to a squirrel. Looks like a Fox Squirrel. Those are quite friendly.

I'd never seen one hang upside down like a bat like that before lol

Squirrels are awesome! They have personalities and tendencies. They are a bunch of fun to watch them doing their squirrelly things.

I have legit watched the little shits jump on, and slide down the pole to clear off the Vaseline we greased it up with until they could climb up and get at it. We tried cayenne powder on the seed just have them learn to wash it off. They are smart, adorable little fuckers. I just wish they would leave the bird food alone and just stick to the corn we leave for them.

You should watch the backyard squirrel maze videos by Mark Robert on YT. Apparently nothing can stop them

I have! Mark has some great videos. I'm not really a YT junkie like a lot of people seem to be these days, but I'll watch Mark's stuff. GLITTER BOMB THEM PORCH THIEVING BITCHES!
