"Mission Impossible" squirrel!
« on: February 21, 2011, 05:54:55 pm »
The Mission Impossible Squirrel

 This takes place in East Texas near Lovelady.  The owner of the yard added each piece of the Rube Goldberg contraption slowly so that when the squirrel learned one section and got the nuts, they added another section.  Finally, it ended with what you see on the video!  It took place over two-weeks to get to this point.   

Darn, those East Texas squirrels are something else.

Amazing what those squirrels can learn to do for a little food.

Thanks....that was great.  I had to watch it twice.  My dog loves to chase the squirrels in our yard.  I could imagine him trying to chase one as it went through all that.
