The guy 2 doors down has a walnut tree, and the squirrels hide them all over the place. I've found them tucked into the crease of the downspouts, in the window sills, and I had to take compressed air to blow the shredded hulls out of the intake manifold on my truck. I even shot one out the tailpipe of my bike once, when I started it.

Around here the last few years people steal the walnuts before they ever hit the ground.So it's not much of an issue.
Too funny, that's a good one .
