Try collecting branches from and around the trees.

+1 Then use our rock to try and crack one of the nuts.

Apparently, one of the trees you didn't inspect is an apple tree, as an apple fell from it. The pigeon flew off.

You try to crack one of the nuts with the rock. It takes a while, but you finally open it.

You also collect some branches from the trees and throw them into a pile.

Pick up apple and cram it down throat whole.

Eat the nit and take a bite out of the all,e

[TankKit]

Eat the nut and as put the apple in our backpack before looking for some more stones. Prepare an area for a campfire or, if possible, find a spot safe enough for one and surround it with rocks. Throw sticks and branches into the middle and then look for another rock that can be struck against the first to create a spark.

Just how sure are we it is actually an apple, and not something nasty like a manchineel? (Google that or Apple of Death. Fun times.)
The trees, as previously mentioned, were not recognized, nor were the nuts. I advise caution.

I say, before eating anything, testing it for toxins comes first!
It is quite simple, really. First take a small piece of it, and smell it. If it doesn't smell acrid or foul, put it on your skin, and leave it there for a few minutes. No rash or other worrysome reaction? Put it in your mouth, keep it there for a few minutes. Nothing yet? Swallow a bite. Wait a few hours. Not puking your guts out at this point? Hey, it just might be safe to eat. Go ahead.

Should we bold the test?

[MaxTheFox]

Sorry for the delay, I had real life things get in the way. Updating tomorrow.

You decide to test the nut for toxins. It does not smell. Does not cause any reaction on your skin or mouth. You decide to take a small bite and then wait for 2 hours. Nothing happens, so the nut is safe to eat.

You do the same with the apple. Placing it on your skin caused a rash. You feel like you really dodged a bullet there. You put the apple back on the ground.

You also arrange a site for a campfire.

Carefully explore the surrounding area for a few hours. Glance at the sun to estimate what time it is.

Rename apple to poisonapple.
