Nuts!

Has any one noticed the insane amount of acorns this fall? I was out working in the yard under some big oaks and it was like walking on a field of ball bearings. I actually slipped and fell on a slight grade. We are going to have some fat squirrels.

I hate squirrels.

Mother Nature's way of making sure all of her animal children will be fat, as it's going to be a very snowy winter!

I hate these damn. Tree rats too 💀, the effers ruin the Queens gardens . They are one step above 💩, imho.

I Hope Darkside is right...I stopped by one of our local backcountry spots, Natty Glade while I was on a mtb ride the other day - just to see how much deadfall had to be cleared from over the summer.  I'm sure glad I had a helmet on, I was rained on by acorns.  
So yeah, I'm going with the cold, deep winter deal.

Oh, and it's just not squirrels that like acorns.. Wild turkeys dig 'em too!

I was thinking the same thing, but I did not want to jinx it. Last night the big oaks were puking acorns, I never saw anything like it.

They hammered this spot

Wild Turkeys are some of the most beautiful birds around....the colors they carry are amazing in the spring

When you get one answering your call and he's comming in all puffed up.....WOW, pure adreline rush

Deer like em too

Skimore ---- here's a pic you'll appreciate

Crappy cell phone pic of a GREAT pic that my Dad took....he was able to get 2 Jakes fighting in mid-air...pretty cool

Nice.......too bad isn't a better camera

That's a great pic Camp.  They sure aren't afraid to mix it up.  I had to stop on the road once for a pimp Tom and his harem.  He did crossing guard duty as they strolled across the road - I rolled down my window and made really bad calls.   The tom got all puffy and threatening.  I should have ran him over.  Road kill dinner.  But I didn't , he won, and continued on across the road to join his Ho's.
