Say it's not so - the leaves are changing color

Maple on 8th NW August 5 Photo by Lee Lageschulte |
We can ignore the back to school ads on TV but photographic evidence is hard to ignore. Lee Lageschulte's camera captured this shot of a maple tree whose leaves have already changed to fall colors. The sun is still shining! What do the trees know that we don't?
But wait! Yet another reader says "It's a Japanese maple. It turns color early and vividly. It's not heat stress or lack of water. You can see the green trees in the background, so it's not a heat or lack of water problem. It's the species of the tree."

Lack of water and heat stress, not fall.
