Fruit & veg
Something is making holes in the leaves of my plumb tree. I'm unsure if it is the sun or an insect. Is it possible to tell from the photos?

I can see some brown spots, so I suspect it's shot-hole cause by bacterial canker, unfortunately:

I have it on 3 of my plum trees too.
A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

Ok Bob, thanks for your advice. I'll get some wound paste, then prune the affected areas.
