The birth of an oak tree...

I have just recently noticed the myriad of tiny green acorns that have fallen from the trees. I don't know if it's the extreme heat or if this is just when they normally fall. I don't recall seeing so many green ones before but I'm sure it's just because I've never had my eyes wide open. I fell in love with them and took a handful home from my walk yesterday evening. I got a lot of funny looks from people as I was squatting down to hand select the acorns from the ground... that's okay, I just smiled and carried on. :-)
