Thanks SR, I just tapped three trees in my front yard. I've never paid attention but in looking at the dead leaves on the ground I've believe I've got both sugar and silver maples but I don't know which is which.
The first two I tapped started pouring sap immediately. The third did not and had not by the time I had the bucket and lid put in place. Fingers crossed I might get to make my very first pint of maple syrup!
