I'd say beech, but don't you have tons of beech there?

 

[thewoodlands]

Yes,but not in that area. Lots of Cherry in that same area.

Never too old to learn, eh?

Is that a long, pointy end bud I see on the second picture? Those are characteristic of Beech trees. Check out some large Beech and you should see them, and they can help you recognize small Beech.
