chestnut oak
Published by espringer,
I've had my eye out for this species since noticing it in Wojtech's book. The clean lines around the vertical scar here interrupt the otherwise chunky blocks that mark the mature tree.
Update: Returning recently to the Laurel Brook area in the summer, I’ve had trouble re-locating this tree to confirm and document the distinctive chestnut-oak leaves. Meanwhile, however, I’ve noticed chestnut oak leaves on the east side of the Wadsworth mansion property, so I must get back there with a camera to include full documentation here...
