Is this tree dying? Is it already dead? It has brown, dead leaves but all the other trees around still have green leaves. It is not true autumn yet. Does it lack water? It's near a little river, therefore there is water nearby. Perhaps its roots are damaged, or perhaps the whole tree is diseased. It's a horse chestnut. A little caterpillar likes living in its leaves, and there is a fungus as well.
