Hazelnuts/Filberts by vickisfotos

Hazelnuts/Filberts

The fallen nuts that have been left behind by the scavenging squirrels and jays. I am sure by the end of winter, they too will be gone.
Very nice

Love all the brown tones. There is an old tale that lots of acorns mean lots of snow and a bad winter. guess we will have to wait and find out if it applies this year.

We used to have a Filbert in our yard and in fact live in an old Filbert orchard. Unfortunately, the cherries are taking over. The squirrels must be very happy in your yard. You probably spend all spring and summer removing the "volunteer" filberts. Nice capture for the season.

I highly doubt it will take the squirrels very long to gather them all up ; )

Gorgeous shot. I love these when they are fresh off the tree before they go too brown. They have a far more fruity flavour xx

Lovely shot Vicki, great textures
September 30th, 2012  
love the textures and colours!

Beautiful capture and textures. They are a bit expensive to buy here and you allow them to be stolen by squirrels and jays. Well they have to eat too.

Love to see squirrels rummaging around for nuts. Our s don't seem to hibernate like they used to though & we do see them around all winter.
September 30th, 2012  
Beautiful fall shot! We have a lot of nuts falling off our tree. I don't know what kind they are, but don't think they are edible...just driving me nuts!
September 30th, 2012  
@wannabe are they like these...if so...you can eat them...but if they are wild ones like these are, watch out...they most likely have worms in them too!
September 30th, 2012  
@sangwann these are growing wild along the edge of our property...we don't do anything with them as far as spray, etc and most of the time when I open them up, they are have a little worm in them too! I would rather leave them for the birds!
September 30th, 2012  
Love this one!!!
September 30th, 2012
