Got into a woodie shoot several years ago, and when we cleaned them, I found 16 acorns in each one of them, from gullet to crop. All the tops of the acorns had been removed. I can't remove the tops with my fingers, They are very adept. Does anyone have a guess on how much food that represents? A day, week, month?

I don't know the exact answer to that because in a good acorn year the Woodies will be constantly feeding on them. I have been miles from a pond and have flushed wood ducks both off the forest floor and out of the branches of Oaks.
