Nice, are you going to send those to me?
Do they help you if the tree is dead, no leaves and bark peeling off?
My problem with the two books I looked at before always based it off the leaf.
Not to mention when your starting out it's tough to get a good eye for it.
I swore everything in my woods was black cherry or tulip poplar. At least the bark online matched. I thought.
A year later it's cherry, old silver maple and hickory. How could I confuse those!? I don't know. It takes time to get an eye for it. And asking you old cranky guys what it is really helps.

Can I take trees from the woods then!? I'll never come in your yard again, sir.

I used the text book of dendrology pictured when I was in college. It's a very informative book.
