Ditto. Also, the NW maples on peninsular Halifax exhibiting spectacular go=
lden-yellow coloration just before leaf-drop.

Subject: Re: [NatureNS] Norway Maple leaves unspotted
Hi Steve,
I meant to reply to you earlier. I too noticed the scarcity of tar spot fu=
ngus on the Norway Maples this year, on my daily walks from home in central=
Halifax to work in south end Halifax. I took careful note this afternoon,=
when I spent several hours raking leaves, and probably less than 10% had t=
he spot, when in other years nearly all would have been affected.
Cheers,
Patricia L. Chalmers
