    This was extremely helpful information. But it almost makes me afraid to walk around outside and inspect my plants and trees! At least I know what to look for. Thanks so much, Lars. Now is there anything you can suggest to help with the wild and crazy winds we are experiencing? 😉

      Thank you for tuning in Diane. Lars always has great info. Maybe we should just all go fly some kites today instead. 😉

    Ha! That made me laugh out loud. But I think it’s even too windy for kites, as appealing as it may sound.
    They might be soaring one minute and then then doing a quick nose dive into the ground the next instant.
    I will stay inside and play with my photography on the light box instead!
