Bird Feeder & Squirrel War Hats

Backyard bird feeding is the quiet national hobby: in the US Fish and Wildlife Service figures for 2016, 22.5 percent of US adults fed wild birds, and the typical feeder-keeper never leaves the kitchen window. This wearer is not chasing a life list. They have a pole system, a thistle feeder for the goldfinches, a nectar schedule for the hummingbirds, and a running feud with one squirrel. That feud is the heart of the hobby. Audubon notes that squirrels are very good at two things, climbing and jumping, and that shop staff can field 15 or more squirrel questions in a single day at peak season. One long-running squirrel-war blog put the lesson plainly: the squirrel-proof bird feeder was never squirrel proof. These Bird Feeder & Squirrel War Hats wear that war with a straight face: the baffle that lost, the birdseed that raised a family of squirrels, the budget that deserves its own line item, and a day count for a conflict nobody is winning. There is a sincere side too. CARDINALS APPEAR WHEN ANGELS ARE NEAR is a faith and memorial phrase already sold on tees, so it gets two colorways here with no squirrel joke beside it. This is the backyard crowd, distinct from Funny Birder Hats, which covers the field birder with a life list. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat, a good gift for the person who already owns six feeders.
