Removed all mammoth sunflower heads :-( (to deter rats)

Alas, so sad.  The mammoth sunflower heads just can't stay -- the rats are a big fan even long before the seeds are anywhere near ripe.  So, removed all the remaining ones today.  

So far I've kept the non-mammoth sunflower heads, will see if the rats make their way onto those ones too or if their stems are too fragile or whatnot.

The goldfinches have the sunflowers at the feeder, plus the remaining non-mammoth heads (for now at least).
