Compare the acorns in the 1st and 2nd photos! See? They've got longer!
These are the acorns of quercus myrsinifolia or more commonly known as bamboo-leaf oak. They both look like tiny spinning tops, but the acorns in the 2nd photo (early September) were chubbier, i.e., the length was shorter than the diameter, while in late September (1st photo) they're a little skinnier. It's like a chubby baby growing up to be a skinnier toddler, then like my husband!
My husband was very chubby but grew up to be very skinny. So far so good, but after that, he'd gained weight and was officially diagnosed as being "fat😆." Back then, he was eating potato chips, ice cream, and chocolates every night after dinner😂. Now, however, thanks to the great effort of his lovely wife (who's me😁), he's lost not only weight but love handles👍!
He'll have a medical check-up in a week, the first check-up after getting back to normal weight. He's been nervous for the last week. He knows he needs to change or will be FORCED😱 to change his diet depending on the checkup result...
The bamboo-leaf oak acorns are still matcha green, but will be brown ultimately. I'm already looking forward to seeing them!

白樫（シラカシ）の実です。2週間前にも書いたのですが、その頃よりシュッとしました。（プクプクの赤ちゃんが少しほっそりしました。）うちの旦那様も生まれてすぐはプクプクだったのですが成人したころはガリガリ。ところが数年前にはメタボ診断されてしまいました。毎晩ポテチとアイスとチョコを食べていたから当たり前！でも愛すべき妻の尽力により今は減量に成功しました。
ただもうじき体重落として初の健康診断。ということで彼、ちょっとびくびくしています。結果によってどうなるか分かっているんでしょう｡｡｡｡😱
今はまだ抹茶緑の実が茶色になるのが楽しみです。
