Early Acorns

The large oak behind the house is starting to drop acorns. When they fall they rattle down the leaves like irregular percussion.

Quite a few still have their cup attached and a little stem as well. Recent gusts of wind will have helped. Amongst the acorns I also found a pair of hazelnuts, which were rather premature.
