Acorn Hats and a Gall


I love oak galls left by gall wasps. I remember the first time I saw one. It was an unexpected discovery, a roundish organic shape about an arms length away in a scrub oak. Since that day long ago, I keep my eyes open for them. This one was found under our small Coastal Live Oak and is destined for a nature swap.

  1. I love stepping on acorn caps on the sidewalk because they make such a nice crunch. But your adorable acorn-capped people will make me think twice next time.
