In the fall, Western scrub jays search for food that can be stored and consumed during the winter months. These birds add something different during the storage of their food.

Birds are aware that their food supplies may be stolen by other birds or even squirrels. Therefore, when a Western scrub jay hides its food, it always carefully observes its surroundings.

They store as many as 30,000 seeds, by only storing three or four seeds in one place. This means that Clark's nutcracker must remember thousands of hiding places. Scientists explain that these birds use tree stumps, fence posts, and other landmarks to help remember where the seeds are buried."
