Dear All, Dec 2, 2015
Drawing on memory, no more than 2/3 of Oak leaves are normally shed
before late January and most Beech leaves stay on until buds swell in
spring.
This year I noticed >90% Oak and >50% Beech leaves shed by early
November.
Also the fruit on a nearby Mountain Ash (Sorbus) usually hang on until
birds get them over winter. This fall more than 80% of fruit were shed
~early November; most or all of these were on the ground so likely not early
and messy feeding.
I am wondering if this apparent change is a product of atypical weather
or a byproduct of failing memory.
Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville
