So, I identified two of the nearby #AshTrees -- they are both green ash -- and both of them are not doing well. I saw evidence of something digging holes into them, but not 100% certain it's #EAB. I'll be taking another picture when it's sunny to send off to #MDIFW for positive ID. A friend said there might be two more nearby that are in better shape. Checking those out later this week...
