Quercus rubra?

 

[CutHighnLetFly]

incorrect sir

 

[robinia]

Looks like an Oak to me...
Quercus velutina?

 

[Treezybreez]

Juglans nigra? Some of the branches look twisty, although the trunk dose look like Oak.

 

[CutHighnLetFly]

not a walnut. its not an oak, once you know what it is, it'll probably seem obvious

 

[tomthetreeman]

Big old Norway Maple?

 

[CutHighnLetFly]

not a norway maple

 

[jon427]

Fraxinus Americana

 

[pigwot]

Twisting branches reminds me of Catalpa

Since you are new to the buzz, Jon (Welcome!), I'll give you a brief rundown… As the winner of the round it is your job to put up a new pic or defer to the field if you can't get one up in a reasonable time frame. Nice job, btw!

Ok, let's see if I can get this to upload my pic.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Pinus taeda?

 

[jon427]

close but not quite.

 

[tomthetreeman]

How about P. palustris?

 

[jon427]

I think I might have you stumped on this one Tom, keep trying.

 

[oldoakman]

Pinus echinata?

 

[jon427]

so many pines to choose from, no winner yet.
