This is a tree that got blown over a few weeks ago. It didn't break, it got uprooted. It's at least 70 feet long and at breast height would be about 12 inches dia., and it's very straight. I can't be sure exactly how long it's been down, but some of the leaves still have a hint of green left in them. This one is not in the pond site. It's on some high ground where there are a fair amount of what I've been calling White Oaks.
Now a newcomer around here might think ol' DanG is an old hand at this game, but it ain't so. A few months ago, I wouldn't have even attempted to guess at this one. But, if you look back a couple of pages on this board, you'll find a group of excellent tutorial threads that WDH did on southern oaks. I was really weak on oak identification until I read them. Study them a little bit, and you'll have even more fun exploring those woods.
