Sad to see this wonderful tree come down, but as one of the tree guys said when looking at the job: “it’s got a lot of problems”. Not the least of which was a huge branch (on the right in the photo) leaning toward the house, and more importantly, the backside of that branch with a substantial amount of bark loss and signs of an insect infestation at its base. The tree offered the best dappled shade, though, courtesy of its small leaf structure, and a sparse canopy.

I asked a guy who was chopping wood nearby if he knew what kind of tree this was. He said “Well my fifth-grade daughter once did a report on it, and ID’ed it as a charter oak, or a white oak”. Good enough for me.

I’m looking out over South Cove here, towards a dazzlingly bright late afternoon sun shimmering off the mud and water of low tide. Interestingly, there’s hardly any post-processing here; the camera’s color sensor rendered the scene in a simple monochrome.
