grackles in my post oak
ok...this is strange. must be because of all the rain
this year, but my large post oak above my house has produced a ton of acorns. i've only lived here for 5 years but i don't recall it ever producing this many, if any. anyway, for the last few weeks, swarms of grackles are up in the tree seemingly picking acorns...but they are dropping a ton of them. i've tried to see if they're eating them and accidentally dropping some, but frankly, it's hard to tell. i see some of them "nibbling" on acorns, and then they fly off before i see if they actually eat the thing. so what's up? are they eating them? trying to crack them open? just helping the squirrels out by harvesting them? it sounds like a hail-storm on my roof with all the acorns falling... thanks, marty. |
