Going, going, go....

It's a sad fact that most of the huge, beautiful Horse Chestnut trees in the UK are diseased with a form of canker and by a leaf miner. One of the side effects of the leaf miner is that that the leaves become very blotchy and fall very early and that is what is happening with this tree branch. Although it is Autumn most of the other trees in our park are still green and holding onto their leaves.
