Squirrels sort the 10,000 nuts they store a year in a similar fashion to the way humans put away their groceries, a study finds.

Sounds nuts to me.

It's driving some folks here round the bend trying to find enough for the stash, but luckily we'll soon be getting our very own store... we're calling it 'Walnutmart'

Is it going to be a real store or just a "SHELL" company?

Welllll... I thought it sounded squirrelly... or would that be "squirrellie"?? No matter, it is nutz... All I know is what I've seen, and the fox squirrels in my neighborhood have gotten bored with me just having pin oak trees in my yard, and recently started shopping on Amazon, and having home-delivery... I have no idea what they're doing with the packing materials used to protect their little nutz...

It is a 3 step process...


1.


2.


3.


no more digging holes in my yard...
