In reply to Lankyman:
A few of the biggest tress out my way look untouched, but a lot more were late in to leaf, have well below normal foliage levels and have bare branches sticking out a few feet beyond the leaves this year.
It's a marked worsening from last year... Of the trees with bare branch ends this year, most looked fine this time last year, but then started shedding their leaves from late august onwards whilst still green, often with filamentous parts of their venous structure being left behind. Last year I had wondered if the early leaf fall was due to the exceptionally dry period around April - the weather has been less bonkers this year so we'll see what happens...
It seems very patchy where it's bad and where it isn't - even to the point where we have one tree with two major trunks, one visibly hammered and one fine. It seems pandemics always move in mysterious ways.
In the hope they're reading, I wanted to thank the posters who replied to my thread on this from the spring - it locked before I said "Thanks". Some very knowledgable stuff in there.
