Observation Notes:
We were called there to remove down vegetation across the road. I stopped the truck because I thought I saw a young Quercus lyrata. After I looked I saw a small understory tree I couldn't identify. I pressed a specimen and took it back to the office and identified it. I confirmed my identification with the Olmsted Conservancy's Botanist - Pat Harangan.
