Once again this year the beeches in the Waverley area are in bad shape. 
Something has attacked the leaves, leaving them stunted, shriveled and 
with black tips. We had this for the first time that I know of last 
year, but this year it's worse in that the leaves are much smaller. I 
suspect that if this keeps up, combined with beech bark disease, it is 
going to wipe out a lot of the trees within the next few years.

Anyone else seen this in other parts of the province? Any thoughts what 
it is?
