how you are supposed to tell the difference between some of the oaks, i have absolutely no idea. the live oaks on campus look like the live oaks in very southeast LA on the salt marsh levees, which look exactly like the scrubby oaks in central tx. there's no way those are the same species but they all look the same to me.

They are.

I find oaks(in La.) to be very easy. Young specimens in the water/laurel/willow can be tough, but other than that, it's simple.
