Cruel nature wins again !
Just nature doing its job. Often these species changes and proliferation of diseases in vegetation are more often like 'cruel humans win at accelerating climate change'
Lets hope it doesn't happen to birch, maple, luan or poplar, or drums are really in trouble.

"Mankind accelerating climate change" is a fun myth, but not always applicable. From the article:
"The trees are being killed off by the fungal disease ash-dieback along with an invasive beetle called the emerald ash borer."
Looks like ash-dieback is relatively new in Europe, and science may be able to help us figure out why older ash trees seem immune.
Has anyone made a drum kit out of Norwegian Wood?
