Curious if anyone is seeing Anthracnose this year? Thought I saw it on a neighbors apple and I’m really hopeful it’s not. http://pnwhandbooks.org/plantdisease/apple-malus-spp-anthracnose-bulls-eye-rot
I saw some late last summer into the fall. It’s too early for me yet.

I often get that, largely because I do few or no summer disease sprays. This year I am doing a couple summer sprays and will see how things improve. Some varieties are highly prone to bulls eye rot, Akane for example.

At a glance I could not tell what he had on his tree but it did not appear to be Fireblight but it may have been black rot Diseases of Apple Trees - Black Rot — Crop & Pest Report. I really think it was anthracnose. My trees are a short distance away.
