Let’s get excited people, we’re going to go looking for a tree!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this prompt, I chose a Northern Red Oak on the outskirts of my phenology spot. I had to search a little farther out than preferable because there was a lack of the desired tree species near the shoreline. However, I did find a hearty-looking hardwood along our path that I thought would do nicely.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since this tree and I are going to be spending some quality time together over the next couple of weeks, I thought we should get to know each other on a first-name basis. Therefore, I christened my tree by the name of \u201cEvangeline.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who are <\/em>you Evangeline?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At first, Evangeline\u2019s gray mossy made me think that she was some kind of maple, however, I soon noticed that she did not have opposite branching. Additionally, her bark seemed too deeply furrowed for her to be a maple variety. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ultimate telltale sign that we were dealing with a Northern Red Oak was Evangeline\u2019s buds. On the end of most small twigs, there were clusters of scaly pointed buds, which ultimately disqualified the round-budded White Oak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evangeline is a real budding beauty!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
