Kids Clear Trees

The city couldn't handle all the downed trees, so these neighborhood kids help a guy with a chain saw to haul away a tree blocking their street.

Northern Red Oak Leaf And Foot On Midtown Greenway

This northern red oak leaf is so wonderfully preserved, flattened on the Greenway blacktop surface. Oaks are in the Quercus genus; therefore the scientific name for this leaf is Quercus rubra (red).  Oak leaves with pointed lobes are in the red oak family and oak leaves with rounded lobes (like the bur oak) are in the white oak family.

Red Tree

Despite the lovely warm day, maximum temperature of just over 80, this tree clearly says it is autumn.
