It appears to be a total bust up here in NVa. I’m not seeing anything at all in the white and red oaks in my neighborhood and just a few very stunted acorns in a couple of sawtooth oaks I go by regularly. I need to get down to my hunting property and see if things are better there.

We look to have a pretty heavy crop this year. The white oaks in the woods by my house have started dropping acorns that are huge and the hickory trees are loaded with pretty big nuts too.
I’ll try to post some pics after I get home today.

I had always thought, incorrectly apparently, that mast crops were a result of the amount of rain of the season. Guess that theory blew a seal.

Pecans are looking good. Lots of persimmins, the candy of deer food, the size of friggin tennis balls and limbs bowed down to the ground almost.
Berries and shit here got bit by a late frost so there were hardly any. The squirrels and crows have eaten about every pine cone they can get their hands on at my house this year. I hope they broke a tooth.

Here is an acorn from one of my white oaks next to a quarter and then a hickory nut next to a golf ball for comparison.

Probably end up knocking down a couple does this season. :)
