Hi there. I am not a tree person but found this forum and am hoping for some insight. I don't know what this tree is called and whether what it is doing is normal or if it has some issue going on. The tree is about 12 years old and I've never noticed it doing this before. It has some areas where the leaves are

clumping up and they seem wet or sappy. It is producing white dots on leaves and the ground around it. It is dripping to the point that I can hear it if I'm up close. Also the ladybugs seem to be drawn to it right now. Any ideas? Thanks!!
