Using tax dollars to feed squirrels is marbles

Walking through the park today I noticed some lovely seasonal decoration, presumably installed by the city. Mostly hay bales and pumpkins, but also some corn stalks, which were tied to lamp posts and, to my startled surprise, teeming with squirrels. The thing is, they put up corn stalks with the corn still attached (Indian corn, so it was especially seasonal), and every squirrel apparently called every other squirrel in a 10 block radius to come and go to town on this stuff.

Note that omitted from the picture are three of four other critters on the ground waiting their turn.
