Acorn Bombardment

Acorns from our live oaks are falling like crazy now.  Just sitting still on the porch and listening provides a serenade of thumps as they hit the ground all around.  I'm not sure why they are so much heavier this year than in the past; I have heard that oaks drop extra acorns when they are about to die.  I'm not buying into that explanation since they are all healthy looking and have not been too drought-stressed for several years.  If I were a squirrel I'd be totally overwelmed right now...
