very deadly seeds from the death adder beech tree. Deadly to the touch. victim stays healthy until 3rd day after contact then dies within 5 mins of first sign of problems. Hope that is not your hand.

Looks very similar to what I found yesterday as well. As a matter of fact I was going to post picture and ask same question. Only difference is ones I found are a little bigger, about the size of a marble. Are those hard like a nut, the ones I found are. I did find 1 pile of deer droppings close by so I am kind of assuming they are eating them. I thought maybe beech nuts but am not sure. I am hunting Scott County and these were the only thing I found on the ground, could not find a single acorn anywhere on the ground.

Not beechnuts. Look a little like wild strawberries but not much. Could be hominy that hasn't ripened yet.

Hominy is corn so that's just wrong but I have no idea what you've found. Personally I wouldnt spend my time hunting the area because I found them.
