Sneaky Rodents Have Game Of Hide And Seek

These sneaky rodents are stealing all the sunflower hearts bird food. They repeatedly pop up behind the tree trunk, coming back and forward like them having a game of hide and seek. Nobody likes rodents, but when they look over the tree trunk like that, they're kind of cute or would you ran a mile?
Seeing the rats stealing all the food, I stopped feeding the birds on the trunk and use a proper bird feeder with a plastic pipe around the stand, so there is no way for them to climb up. Also very effective for squirrels!

Because of evident displays of their ability to learn, rats were investigated to see whether they exhibit intelligence, as expressed by the definition of a g factor and observed in larger, more complex animals.
Rats and mice are highly intelligent. They are naturals at learning and understanding concepts. Although considerably smaller than dogs, they are at least as capable of thinking about things and figuring them out as dogs are!
Rats will eat nearly anything, but they prefer grain and meat. Rats need 1/2 to one ounce of fluid each day. If they don't get this in the food they eat, they have to find water. Like mice, rats are nocturnal, have very poor eyesight, but have very strong senses of smell, taste, and hearing.
