I don't know if I haven't noticed before but it seems like the oak trees around my house are producing a lot more acorns than normal. I think acorns is the right term for nuts from an oak tree. All day, including the night, I hear a "ping" as the acorn is dropped onto the metal roof and then the roll roll roll as it tumbles down the roof and then a short pause and then the gentle "thud" when it hits the deck. It's kind of fun to listen to it.The deck was swept last week so this amount in the picture is one weeks worth - minus what the squirrels take and hide.
