JoAnne Wilkins writes with a note she sent with these photos:
Maplewood Dairy (Dale and Jim Webb) has started tapping on Berthiaume Rd.
The first picture shows former years' tapholes, plus this years tap, and a woodpecker looking for insects, on the sunny side of the tree.
They have been working in the sugarwoods most of the month of January.
