Walnut trees starting to turn yellow. Other trees showing signs of stress with some leaves turning brown. Crops looking bad. Leaves curling badly. Plant growth in woods: little or none. Definite lack of songbirds. Eerily silent. Seems as though there are few insects so they have either died or left to find a better food source.
