I have always noticed that birds around feeders are extremely wary of  
squirrels.  I read several years ago that despite the famous study of  the 
predator/prey relationship between lynx and hares, the #1 predators of  snowshoes were 
red squirrels snatching babies from the nest.
 
Has anyone ever seen a squirrel go for a bird or are the birds just  
generally weary of anything that large?
