Been seeing posts about them....

Our place is LOADED once again!
BIG acorns! Overcups, Swamp Chesnuts, White Oaks, Red Oaks...and a decent crop of water oaks.

And, they are falling unusually early.
Not sure what's up with that. But, the ground is covered with them! I filled a trough with corn by one of my feeders Thur and put a camera by it. Normally, a bag of corn would be gone in one, MAYBE two, days. I went by yesterday and the trough was still full and camera only had 3 pics! They are HAMMERING the acorns! Also, I have two feeders in a big clearcut for the hogs. Corn on ground still and NO hog pics!

I hope they all fall early......But, I know better..... smile

What I like to find in late season is a Nuttall Oak loaded down and dropping. I've even found fresh dropped acorns under one during turkey season.


"Cull" is just another four letter word...

I noticed the same thing a week or so ago in the riverswamp near St. Stephens. I have also found crab apples and persimmons that were loaded down as well. The grass patches might get about knee high this year....may plant mine later than normal.

We don't have Nuttall, but I like finding Water oaks dropping in January. Very good resource.


83% of all statistics are made up.

Biggest concentration of them I have found is along a drain that connects two "ponds" in an area between two creeks. We've lost a couple of nice specimens to high winds during the wet season.

Wish I had more of them on my place.
