Plenty in North GA as well. The deer and squirrels are all fat and happy. The question is how many acorns will be around in the Spring before the plants begin to bloom. Wildlife depend on two waves of acorns to last them the Winter, though both waves drop at about the same time: acorns from the white oak group are eaten early in the Winter b/c they are tasty at that time of year, while red oak acorns are stored away for early Spring b/c the high levels of tannins make them unpalatable in the Fall and early Winter.
