The Shag and Pignut hickories all around us have been dropping nuts the past 2 months. In the early going I was afraid the squirrels wouldn’t have any nuts to cut on this fall. They start cutting on them real early.
Acorns on the other hand aren’t as plentiful. I have a handful of white oaks and theres nothing falling on the ground during high winds. I haven’t looked up to see how many are up there either though. I’ll get my binoculars out soon for a look.
Catching a shag nut hull on the noggin from a 40 foot drop unexpectedly while sittin in a hot tub hurts like a mfer and is unsettling as heck! Lol
Seems skimpy around here the little bit I've checked. I'll be at the farm on Saturday and intend to check some more. We've had great rain, but a late frost/snow might have screwed up down here.
