I don't like oaks because they hang onto their leaves much later than other trees into the winter.

I recommend the book Tree Crops by J Russel Smith for those interested in trees that provide forage for wildlife and livestock. He makes a case for a bunch of different ones.

At home I like sitting a big area of big white pine or norways.

Love seeing a huge Burr Oak.
Hard to fathom how many critters it's fed.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

Shag Bark Hickory. I was a grown man when I realized they weren't a feeder tree, a hickory. Second as a bonus, Sycamore.....


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I like those big old soft Maples. They house a lot of wildlife as they are usually full of holes and crevices. Had one in the yard where I grew up that had families of owls, wood ducks, coons and about a million squirrels over the years.

I’m gonna have to agree with warrior, loblolly pine is what pays the bills and feeds the family around my place so by default it is absolutely my favorite.

Southern magnolia. Down here the magnolias grow in mesic hammock areas surrounded by lower, wetter pine flatwoods. Deer and turkeys love these higher, sandier magnolia hammocks.
