Oh. Apparently squirrels will eat mealworms.

Urr.

I guess…they’re rodents, I should have figured…but…there’s something kind of unsettling about the fellow sitting in the feeder, calmly chomping off dried mealworm heads.

I’m gonna write off mealworms as an experiment, I think–I haven’t seen a single bird eat one, and that’s awfully expensive squirrel food.
