A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Acer saccharinum
I found this tree in my backyard. This tree has thousands of green leaves on it. The leaves have branching veins, and the leaf is lobed, so I found that it was a maple tree. Then I looked at all the different kinds of maple trees, and found out it was a silver maple because it was the only tree that fitted all of my descriptions.
Silver Maple trees are very popular trees in the U.S. and also grow in some parts of Canada.
