Nuthatches store nuts to ensure a reliable food supply during the winter months when resources are scarce. By hiding nuts in various locations, they can retrieve them later when foraging becomes more challenging. This behavior also helps them to avoid competition for food and protects their food stash from other animals. Additionally, caching nuts allows nuthatches to take advantage of their excellent spatial memory to locate their hidden food.
