Ulmus pumila

Littleleaf Linden, also known as small-leaved Lime (Tilia cordata)
There are many cultivars maybe the taller upright 'Fairview'??



There is a Japanese Lime (Tilia japonica) but it doesn't usually get as big as the one in the photo.

[robinia]

Alnus somethingii

...maybe A. glutinosa?

 

[trees4ever]

Yeah, Tom chose a good one this time.
Growing in the shade and thus a distorted growth habit (with lots of shadows) and the photo slightly out of focus.

He gets points for this one

It must be betulaceae. Tilia and carya have larger leaves/leaflets than this tree appears to have. It looks like an oak to the right at what appears a similar distance. Larger leaves? I wasn't aware that the european alder grew to such size. I'm only familiar with the speckled alder that I've seen in upstate Pa., along with the yellow birch.

 

[williamd]

betula lenta

 

[tomthetreeman]

DINGDINGDINGDING!!!!!! WINNAH!

Good one. I'll be keeping my camera at hand.
