Can you tell the type of tree below by just the bark?? Some easy hints for you. This tree is fairly dominant in our woodlands as an early successional tree. It is not typically browsed by deer, and the bark is said to look like an elephant's leg or perhaps even a sandy beach (BIG hint here..)
If you want to learn more about identifying trees without their bark join us on January 13, 2013 at the Bucktoe Creek Preserve for our winter tree identification walk. Sign up by clicking HERE.
