squirrels and crows are interesting to watch because they alert each other of a food source, but not exactly on purpose. squirrels unearth a cache belonging to a crow, and then eat or run off, with the peanut. same goes for the crow finding out [by watching from a tree, fence, roof, et c] where the squirrel stores food items.
it can go on for a long time, and cracks me up.
crows have remarkable memories when it comes to locating a cache, and sometimes they will fake out other birds [know they are being watched]. this happens also with night nests- crows may fly right past them in order to deter predators.

Very cool! Crows play elaborate team sports/games as well...
