I'm sure Peanut would like to think that he has magical Seed Powers, and is capable of teleporting unlimited snacks into his dish, as well as instantly calling the Big Sweaty Hand into being whenever it's time for Warm Toasties. In fact, he's pretty timid, and even when snacks are available, if they're in a new spot, he doesn't go after them like you'd think he would.
Take this bubble wrap. It's evil, you know, and all of Peanut's squawking and head bobbing didn't bring those seeds any closer. He yelled and yelled, but wouldn't step onto the bubble wrap, despite the fact that the seed pile kept growing. Finally, I moved that one seed closer to him. After more yelling and head bobbing, he finally walked onto the wrap, ate the one sunflower seed, and walked right off again, leaving the pile untouched.
Which is just as well. That's way too many tasty seeds for one sitting.
