Answer:
Bradford pears and other trees that have just been transplanted experience transplant shock in a great many cases. Their roots have been disrupted, and they can be quick to show their displeasure. If someone picked you up, carried you out of your home and plopped you down on a strange property, you probably would be none too happy, either.
In its state of shock, the damaged Bradford pear tree's roots can't send water up to the leaves as they normally would. Pounding winds make matters worse. One result can be leaf wilt. Other plant problems can be caused by these conditions, as well, on deciduous trees. The Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service lists some of them:
Leaf scorch.
Yellowing of the leaves.
Leaf rolling.
Curling of the leaves.
Purdue observes that, at its onset, leaf scorch is indicated by the coloration of the "tissue between the veins or along the margins of leaves" becoming yellow, and that, as the problem progresses, this tissue becomes dry, resulting in a brown color.
