Knobbly acorns
Walking back from the Horniman Museum last week took me past a large oak tree growing just inside a front garden...What caught my attention were all the broken knopper galls lying on the pavement.

If the galls are split from top to bottom, yes it would be the squirrels. The galls are also opened by mice once they are on the ground. Mice will tend to bite through the bottom part where the larval chamber is located. Cheers, Karsten
