How would it possible to do this without prior analysis of the situation?
Crow A: Has some food and wants to hide it
Crow B: watching A
IF A sees B watching her - she will either hide the food, then chase B away, then rehide the food. Or she will hide something else (speculating that B tries to get to this deposit) and then (when B is away) hide the food.
If A does not see B watching her - she will hide the food directly.
This is interpreted as A speculating about the knowledge of B - and the impact her action has on B prior to doing so.
