Inktober Day 14: An acorn

 I've been looking for some nice-looking acorns that still have caps, thinking they'd be a good subject for Inktober.

But I hadn't had much success with the white oak and red oaks on my neighborhood walks (there are acorns everywhere, but without caps.  I came across this one on a walk at Biltmore Estate this morning.  Small, but perfect.

I think it's an Eastern black oak acorn (Quercus velutina), but I'm not going to worry about that overmuch -- lots of oak diversity out there!

Here's today's Inktober drawing.  It provided practice with round objects.  Hmm.
