Chickadees were given an opportunity to store seeds in 72 possible storage sites consisting of holes drilled in small trees that had been placed in an aviary. Typically, the seeds were placed in only 4 or 5 storage sites. The chickadees were then removed from the aviary, the seeds removed from the storage sites, and each hole covered. A day later, the chickadees were returned to the aviary and they spent nearly 5 times as long pulling at the covers on storage sites than at the covers on sites where they had not stored food. This experiment indicates that chickadees
