A Squirrel Holding an Acorn
A squirrel sits upright while carefully holding a small oak acorn in its front paws. Its thick bushy tail curves behind its body, forming an autumn scene that fits seasonal greeting card themes.
How Squirrels Store Food for Winter
Tree squirrels gather acorns and seeds during autumn and bury them in hundreds of separate shallow spots across their territory. Their impressive spatial memory and keen sense of smell enable them to locate buried nuts even when snow covers the ground months later.
