Hm, so no one has told the maples about global warming then!

They know about it! Boiling spring, cold summer... :) Last year
May was so hot there was a little leaf drop.

Of course that 6 inches of snow we had end March didn't help either.
Not to mention not a drop in April, until the end of month hail storm
-- marble sized -- stripped the leaves off of many. Not to mention
knocking out the cherries...

I notice
a lot of maples putting on fall colours, just because it's so cold.
Dogwoods, too.

And Blueberries!

Just a follow up on the fall-like conditions, we picked a lot of blueberries today,
way ahead of schedule. The woodland paths were littered with yellow birch and
beech leaves. And, baskets of girolles: only 3 full months ahead of schedule!

Made a nice addition to tonight's dinner, though.
