Acorn Shortage

Post by oneh2obabe »

While everyone figured it was squirrels hoarding the acorns, scientists and experts figure it was the Acorn Woodpecker who, if a tree isn't available, will drop the acorn down a hole in a house or whatever object it can find. Unfortunately, once it drops the acorn into a structure it can't be retrieved.

Squirrel fills Antenna with Acorns


While taking the siding off of a house thousands of acorns come out. They removed 10 sheets of siding and each one had this many nuts!

Well that's just nuts.
My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?

I didn't think it was possible to have more nuts than Bsuds.

Great nature clips!
As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?

Our neighbor has an Acorn tree and they fall in our yard.

Not only do the Squirrels have a great time but Sunny goes nuts chasing them. (pun intended)
