We've got a couple trees with, um, issues. The pine was planted last year and has fared pretty well except for some browning needles. We've had some recent sod work done, so it might be due to over watering but I'm not sure. The birch was planted two years, really took of last summer, and then this year has crapped out.
Here are some pics of the pine. Any thoughts on the browning?

And here's the birch. It started sprouting some new limbs so I've trimmed the hell out of the old ones and the top. It looks like hell but is perking up some, but I don't expect it to last much longer. I was hoping it would grow more new limbs, but it might be time to go bye bye:
