My state(NC) does not allow the importation of gooseberries or currents
because they carry a fungal disease that damages White Pines. I'm not sure
which fungus or what the damage may be. Try Google White Pine disease +
currents.

Returning home from our Friday trip to town, we spotted this strange
apparition in a tree along the road.....

I need some help identifying it.

White pine blister rust is the disease and gooseberry is the alternate host.
