This link caught my eye because the source was National Public Radio in the United States, in the northern temperate zone (Northern Hemisphere). As I expected, the original date of the article was October (2009). At this time of year (April 2011), deciduous tree leaves are mostly falling only in the Southern Hemisphere.
