This is a familiar sight at FWG, in particular around the old woods and the wooded boundary of the old field. Red squirrels create huge caches of cones, of walnuts, and sometimes other bits of foraged food can be found amongst them. Usually, however, the caches are of a single food type. Each of our squirrel species stores food in a different way. The reds create these large caches, grey squirrels scatter hoard, and chipmunks stock their underground larder. Groundhogs don't store anything, they just beef up (like bears do) before hibernating for the winter.
