This was an excellent video. I think it's the best tree identification video on KZbin. Of course there are various type Maples and Oaks rather just broadly identifying Red or White, but you have the basis here of telling the difference between the two major categories. Unfortunately for me I'm in the deep South so the exquisitely beautiful Fall Aspen tree just isn't an option. Perhaps the highest elevations of The Smokey Mountain range might support them. This Gentleman did a fantastic job with his video.

One major mistake, comparing butternuts with walnuts, is not stating whether it's a 'white' or 'black' walnut tree. Toss 'white' (English soft shell) walnuts into the equation & i'll be a happy camper, & you'll be correct. Please do a WHITE vrs BLACK walnut tree comparison!? I need to ID the difference in leaves, bark, nut size, shape & taste. THANKS

3:50 many trees grow well will Juglans sp. Maple, oak, mulberry, apple, peach and paw paw (Asimnia) are some. Other plants that grow very well under Juglans are echinacea, nigella, raspberries, cilantro, elderberry, foxglove, comfrey, and many others. These are the plants I have personal experience with.
@anasaziroseАй бұрын
2:49 the best way to tell if a tree is in the Juglans family is to crush a smell a leaf. Once youre familiar with the smell, you know it. Closely similar trees sumac (has no smell) and Ailanthus (stinks very bad) are also easy to differentiate this way.

I have some beautiful canker free Butternut trees here in central NY. I've also have some all cankered up and dying and dead ones. My observations over the last 20 years leads me to believe there are some strains naturally more resistant and also certain that Butternut thrives in deep loamy fertile soil with a pH between 6.8-7.2. Definitely does not like hard or wet clay.

Shellbark Hickory (C. Laciniosa) can easily be mistaken for Shagbark Hickory (C. Ovata) where their populations overlap. Shellbark hickory is similar to shagbark (Carya ovata) in its bark that peels away in plates. Trees of shellbark tend to be shorter and with heavier branches than shagbark, and the bark plates of shellbark hickory are straighter (with less curve).

how can you tell that was a scarlet oak leaf and not a pin oak? I struggle to tell those two apart. I've seen that the scarlet oak usually has more C-shaped sinuses whereas pin oak will have more U-shaped sinuses, but there's so much variability within and among individuals thatI feel like I can never be certain. Thanks for the great vids Peter.
@petercollin56705 ай бұрын
Off the tree, it can be hard. But a pin oak, standing, you can't miss. It will have many skinny, dead limbs all the way to the ground. Pin oaks just don't seem to self-prune the way other oaks do.

Awesome presentation. Sycamore balls make fun target practice for a boy with a .22 rifle. That was our Tannerite before we had Tannerite.🙂 I will add that beechwood provided my family with a good bit of monetary security. National Brush had a factory in Glasgow KY and produced wooden brush handles from the very dense hard wood. They didn't apply the bristles at that facility. They processed thousands of board feet of beech lumber into brush handles of all shapes annually. The plant had planers, edgers, molders, and shapers. Some of the machines were very high speed in order to achieve a smooth cut. They required special electrical power and motors for the high speed. My family had an electrical service business. We had someone in that factory nearly every day for ~50 years. Dad would bring pickup loads of the drop trimmings home to burn for heat. We also got sawdust and shavings for the chicken house. Very few wood brush handles now they are PLASTIC.

The leaf scars are a great way to differentiate Butternut from Black Walnut in the winter time. Especially on small trees below my height. Butternut leaf scars look like a goat face🐐. Black walnut leaf scars look more like a monkey at least how i describe it.

I love your pattern and I will tie some up But, I will be using spider wire and zap-a-gap (super glue) to secure my wire onto both hooks.I learned my lesson by loosing a 13 -17 lb. Kokanee Salmon.I got him up to the boat and then lost him. I later found I had hooked him on the trailing hook which was no longer attached. Nice fish though. Oh and by the way that is not Ostrich, it's Peacock hurl. tight lines.

My uncle tom knew him aswell. He was fortunate enough to have fished the oak back in the glory days aswell and took me out there twice back then but i never got to meet him myself. I remember when this fly was just a rumor and nobody quite knew exactly how to tie it. Thanks to you keeping his memory alive we can. We talked to some folks recently who had been fishing the oak for nearly 20 yrs but had never even heard marks story. Was kinda sad to hear he has sorta vanished to most these days. Although we purchased a few of these flies at orleans outdoors fly shop. But like you said they were very small flies. I just purchased everything i need to tie some up thanks to your video. Atleast his fly lives on aswell as his memory we a select few of us. God bless! Fish on!!🐟🎣

"Hardwoods is anything with leaves on it, softwoods is anything with needles on it" - this is a common misunderstanding of the two wood types. Hardwoods are from Angiosperm (flowering) trees while Softwood is from Gymnosperm (seed producing) trees. Either can be deciduous or evergreen.

Nice video. You'd think after all the wonderful invasive gifts we've gotten from Asia (Brown stink bugs, emerald ash borers, spotted lantern flies, certain lady beetles, chestnut blight etc etc etc) that we would learn to be a little more careful and quit bringing many things here from other regions of the world so haphazardly. Then there's white nose that's killing brown bats from Europe.... The Chestnut Blight should have been the last time anything like that ever happened. The mountains I hunt and hike in are called the Chestnut Ridges because that was the dominant tree there. Now, you'll rarely find one popping up from roots that rarely make it more than 5 feet before they are killed by the blight. I sure hope scientists are able to bring them back with their breeding programs.
