Common Trees of the Tusc River Watershed

Today we're trying to see the trees of the forests; while there are many more than these, you are likely to find them if you visit the watershed. Along the Ohio and Erie Canal you will even find the more wild, thorned versions of the Honeylocust listed below - a strange, and, this close to Halloween, somewhat scary sight. The American Sycamore, too, is abundant throughout the watershed, lending its ghostly upper reaches to many a morning fog, standing in stark contrast to the dark, wet woods around it - sometimes a lonely sentinel over-watching a glass-like pond in morning stillness.

  3. Great presentation! It was funny at first when I saw the cucumber tree, thinking of the edible cucumber.
