White bull's eye fuzz on leaves

I saw this yesterday on the snow peas. I will cut off the leaves and spray with hydrogen peroxide, but I was wondering if any knows what kind of disease. It has a distinctive bull's eye.

New snow pea. The vines survived our cold snap.

could it be bird poop??

Not poop. It has a distinction bulls-eye fuzz pattern, which makes me think that something in the center set up the mold. Maybe I can get a closer photo.

Just searched powder mildew and saw some photos that have this bull's eye pattern. Oh, crud.

But you aren't having optimal conditions for a PM bloom are you?

30's - 40's at night. 60-70's daytime. I had PM on the late-planted winter squash (15 ft away) like mad in the fall with similar weather right up to the surprise early cold snap. No rain, no overhead sprinklers. It is what ever it is. . . I'm going to cut off the affected leaves and spray with 1:10 hydo per.
