Empty trees

[foxtail]

I know of a spot where the trees are perfectly healthy, but when you tap them, you get wet holes until you put the tap in. Then the bags are dry the next day. A few hundred yards away the trees drip like crazy until they heal.

Any idea why a small stand of healthy trees would refuse to produce?

Red is the dead forest, green the stuff that ran like heck.

Not sure where you reside. However as a naturalist I would state.

WATER and time of thaw.
The trees near water have more water available which also wakes them up earlier and they will run first. The Others are away from the water as much also look to be surrounded by fields which increase the loss of moisture and thus could be part of the problem.

That might make sense.

The thing is though, that area is saturated for a few days before I can get near to it. There is actually a small stream/waterway that goes through that small clump.
