Default Can grey squirrels count!?

I think that is interesting as it can be!
So, have you nicknamed your squirrel Einstein yet?

I would have thought the little guy would eat what he could and then stash
the rest, but maybe he just isn't greedy. It may be that he only takes as
much as his little tummy can hold.

Cute story though.

| The next morning I put out 6, it left 2. For the last week I have put

| why does this squirrel only take 4 chestnuts? can this squirrel count?
| It takes them away one at a time.
