Acorns and walking

I have a chestnut tree, huge PIA with the burrs and then the nuts.
Years ago my dad and son built a squirrel feeder for peanuts.
Me and the granddaughters still fill it up, last week I found around 3 peanuts still in the shells in the mine field of chestnuts.
I guess the critters like the chestnuts better than the peanuts.

Also I live in town, surrounded by traffic and concrete, but it never fails after the first frost I will go out one morning and there will be about a 1/2 dozen deer bedded down, and the nuts will be gone.
They are so bold that I have seen them walk up the alley around dusk.
