I've enjoyed all the postings about mobbing behaviors... Any clues about
the _stashing_ behaviors of Corvids, esp. Steller's Jays?

Adults seem to gulp down 2-3 unshelled peanuts and fly off to stash them. Do
they FIND them again? Or is this the same kind of mindless stashing that
squirrels exhibit?

Good birding! Cheers--EB (Ellen Blackstone, a.k.a. vaccine at u.washington.edu)
