Subject: [NatureNS] White oak Quercus alba
=20
I've been seeing some oaks around Windsor lately that have rounded =
margins, different than our red oaks. Some small shrubby on roadsides =
but recently a mature tree with lots of acorns (collected 20 or so). =
Pretty sure these are Quercus alba, Eastern White Oak so named in my =
Sibley's guide to trees. This species is absent in my ns tree guide. Can =
anyone comment on this tree and whether it is naturalized in these =
parts?
=20
Also of note, saw a grey squirrel in my backyard in Curry's Corner a few =
days ago.=20
