River Birch leaking yellow fluid after lower limb removed?

Trouble shooting for my elderly parents, they had a lower limb removed from their River Birch about 6 months ago and within the last month or so it has been leaking a yellow fluid. They are wondering if this is simply sap escaping now that the weather is warming up and things are thawing, or if there is a problem they should be on the look out for the tree such as some type of infection that could be causing it?
