now where did i put those nuts?!!!!.........

now this is something that has been bothering me for the last year.......i often see squirrels running about, digging in various sites looking for their buried nuts. But what i want to know is why after all these years of being on this planet they have not evolved enough to remember where they have buried the nuts in the first place. I know the birds are cunning characters and watch and wait while they bury the nutty goodness and then sneak in after them and take them for their own yummy meal, but i would have thought by now that the squirrel's brain would have caught onto this and maybe expanded enough to have rubbed two brain cells together and come up with a super-duper plan to have hidden the nuts in a secret, bird free site. O well, heres to watching squirrels rummaging in random places and scratching their heads in puzzlement.
