We have these two oak trees in our back yard. They have been a source of some issues, being planted so close to the patio, cutting off our decently sized yard. Second, towards late-mid, to the end of summer the neighborhood squirrels all come to try to strip the tree of acorns. Rather than wait for them to fall, they climb out on the branches and gnaw all the tips off. Then they scurry down and pick the acorns off the fallen branches, but leave behind a mess of leaves and branches. It looks like autumn is in full force, but with green leaves, only under two trees, and in August. I just recently came to notice though, a bonus of having to clean up this mess, that in the wee hours of the night and early sunrise hours, the neighborhood deer come to feast on this leaf buffet. It’s quite a site to see just out the kitchen window. I couldn’t snap really good pics as they are soooo alert and quick. -- source link
