Yeah most of those trees that have died turn brown real fast.  The pin oaks and red oaks have taken worst than any around here and I hate to see that because the wildlife depend on those acorns like no other.  In creek bottoms where those trees have always had a little more water they took it the hardest.  There are hundreds of dead red oaks around me and those big suckers are hard hard to replace.  The pin oaks or water oaks grow quickly but red oaks not so much.  There are a lot of live oaks around me too and some that I know are 100+ years old have so few leaves you can see completel through the canopy real easily.  I hate this mess, it really is kinda like living in Seattle or something, everytime you look outside or at the ten day forcast its depressing.  More of the same and more after that.  Deer and evrything look horrible around here, I started putting out corn and protein just so they would have some groceries.  If the hogs are still alive I don't have a clue what they are eating.
