I'll bet the would. Though I sure a 3" 14 gauge post fill with concrete
and cemetted to bedrock with rebar gussets should with stand the bears.
I wondering more about what gauge steel plate I should use fabricate the
bird feeder and weld it to the top of the post. Feeder will only be
about 6 feet off the ground so it's visible from inside the house.
