Trees from a distance

Beech?

 

[Serf Life]

Bark looks patterned almost like a sycamore, but not quite. Hybrid of some sort?

I’m so sad to be missing Legends this year

How about Butternut?

I think that's from the lighting

Surgery was postponed and is happening tomorrow. If recovery goes well, I'm hoping to make it to legends, even though they don't need the help. Maybe I'll get there in time for setup.

@Serf Life Not a hybrid. It's a fairly large native hardwood.
It is also not a butternut. I can't say that I've ever seen one of those. I definitely haven't had one ID'd for me.

Beech?

Also not beech

 

[SomethingWitty]

Alright. The blurry winter picture was definitely hard. I just jumped on street view and got one that's a little more obvious.

Elm

Hope the surgery goes well. My wife has had 3 this year. A pair of new knees and some internal work. Wish her(your wife) a fast recovery.

Not allowed. Get on a plane.

Sugar maple

 

[SomethingWitty]

It is an elm.
The size is probably a fair giveaway for the species.
Thanks for the wellwishes.
