Good morning. I'm Leila Fadel. In 20 years of pest control, Nick Castro had never seen something so strange.

Castro thinks it was woodpeckers that spent years collecting, storing and snacking on the acorns. And one of the birds, according to Castro, is a little bit of a pack rat, but maybe it's just more of a bird hoarder3. It's MORNING EDITION.
