Squirrel Talk (Oregon White Oak)

SQUIRRELS! Today we burrow head first into a discussion of the Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana), another house favorite tree named by David Douglas, and our first broadleaf species. Most years these mighty acorn-makers supply local squirrel populations with plenty of food for winter. But what happens when an oak takes the year off, and how does that affect the squirrel world (or, Squirrorld ™)? Are squirrels organizational geniuses... or do they simply think like squirrels? How many times can you say the word "squirrel" until it starts to sound like gibberish? All these answers and more, on this episode of Completely Arbortrary.

Completely Arbortrary is produced and hosted by Casey Clapp and Alex Crowson
