Tree Identification Help: Location Caney Lake

Plenty of fishing to be done...Promise!!

They are building and are going to have to clear the land. They are walking around and picking out the trees they like and want to keep.

Looks like a worthless Asian something or another. If its not an oak or bears fruit cut that bitch.

On a side note just found out that Red Oaks are considered endangered in LA.

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.

Various magnilias are found all throughout the woods in louisiana. The feliciana parishes are covered with them.

The closer to the river you are the more prevelant they are. They can be found following most major rivers. The red/ atchafalaya and mississippi.

If I could find property with everything but pine trees id be a happy man.
