Maple losing small branch
FamilyNet Newsgate
=?One of my neighbours at the back has a huge maple (not a sugar maple). =?The tree looks healthy has a nice shape and is full of leaves, but at a =?slight wind it loses small branches. Today, I gathered, on our lawn, 2 =?small buckets of these branches. These branches have 3 to 10 leaves on =?them and they are very green and big. There was a breeze but not strong =?enough to move plastic trays for plants that I was washing outside. =?Is it natural for a maple to lose so many small branches? I do not =?recall seeing this before even in a big wind. My parents had 3 sugar =?maples in their garden for years and they never lost any leaves only in =?the fall when the leaves were red. I have a 40' Norway maple out front that does the same thing. I have wondered if the squirrels have cut off the branches (or maybe some birds that have a nest further up the tree ?-) Its roots have heaved the sidewalk up about 6" and we are looking forward to the city removing it before someone stumbles, etc..
