Six sprouted white oak acorns planted in home-made squirrel-proof cages by a few of us Urban Forestry Commission folks and one high school student! We consider one student a good beginning, with the hope that a year from now we will have dozens.

Forgot to bring phone/camera to the planting, so actual photos will have to wait until tomorrow.
Mighty oaks from little acorns grow.

We’ve enjoyed watching the Australian “soapy” TV series, Royal Flying Doctor Service, which we found on PBS of all places.
