Betula nigra
Simple, pinnately-veined, double-serrate leaves, which were not growing at this time of year. Salmon-colored, peeling bark. Grow frequently in this area. This specimen was approximately 15 to 20 feet tall, with several trunks.
An area in yard that was covered in pine needles, though they naturally grow in grassy areas.
This tree was young; older ones have darker, less peeling bark.
