marking the trees!

[Pokegama Pointe]

Enjoying the fall colors to no end and also taking advantage of marking those maple trees for taping come spring!

That's good, but do yourself a favor and study the trees you mark now to learn to identify them in Jan-Feb at tapping time. Maples are very easy to I.D. in the winter once you know what to look for. Hint, study the upper branches and the bud tips. Then the bark, at various ages of trees, they change as the trees mature.
