You are lucky UT. When I lived in the Welsh Village, we had a gorgeos walnut tree big enough to house a tree house I'd guess could of slept 6 adults if needed (something never tried). Every year the tree would "fruit" and we would look forward to pick the nuts but always, before we decided to pick, The squirils seemed to manage a "dawn raid".

I don't object too much to that but a few of the nuts left in pansies or what ever plants we had there would have been a rather nice reward.
