    Do you have many Black maples left in your part of New York? Down here in SE Ohio, Black maples were very common years ago and were some of the biggest trees left around here locally as I was growing up, and nowadays, they just aren't as numerous as they once were. I have not yet learned why they seemed to have been cut less than other species of maple locally. Upon reading period accounts from the years of first settlement before and after the Ohio Country achieved statehood, it was mentioned in two different journals of the large pure stands of Black maples that could be found in parts of the forest, usually adjacent to, and slightly intermixed with large, pure stands of Sugar maples. Of course , the forest had been drastically changed by my time, and I missed out on seeing that in the woods, except on the few tracts of land that had not been logged in quite a long time in my locality. Hybridization between Sugars and Blacks was(and probably still is)fairly common down this way, and may be a substantial reason as to why Black maples seem to be unfortunately disappearing locally. They are very close cousins to Sugars, usually carry the same amount of sugar, and, grain-wise are basically identical to Sugars, hard, tough and beautiful. The Black maple is yet another interesting member of a fascinating worldwide clan of trees.

Based on your description here, it most closely matches the Silver Maple. Gonna have to go for a walk around our forested property to see if we can find a Sugar Maple. (We're in the north of Virginia.) 👍 Those seeds are super iconic. I always called them "helicopter seeds" for how they fell to the ground. 😅

Place it in your mouth like a conventional mouth call and breathe across the blade using it like a reed. Takes some practice but it's effective. Taught to me by my grandfather who said his grandfather taught him.
