lol, Kath. Dead oaks in the South. That is very funny.
However, you're not far off the mark because there is an 'epidemic' of oak wilt (at least in central Texas) that's killing a lot of trees here. There are big educational campaigns trying to raise awareness about identification, treatment and prevention of oak wilt in order to preserve oak trees in the area.
I do enjoy seeing big beautiful old trees. Climbed a few back in olden days.
