Winter Tree Bark Identification 

Wanted you to show a Cherry tree,very interesting bark and very identifiable! Maybe another video. Awesome teaching Kevin :)

Really enjoyed this one. I've always wanted to camp with you because I thought it would be fun, now I want to camp with you for the education! The bit about the yellow bellied sap sucker was a huge piece of information. I've grown up always assuming when I would see the holes like that there was an insect infestation. Now I know! Thanks for sharing Kevin.

Great video Kevin. Dendrology was my favorite class in college!

Very helpful Kevin. Thanks

This is the kind of thing I wish I had paid more attention to in Grade 5 Geography Class! That's okay though, you're much more entertaining than that old teacher was! 🙂

Very informative and interesting Thank you Kevin.

This video is great! Watched it all the way through twice, taking notes along the way. About to watch it again. Fantastic!

Love these educational videos. Thanks Kevin!

So informative, thanks for sharing your knowledge.

These are great and very interesting learning videos❤️

Very informative, well illustrated. Thank you.

The Beech tree is one of the so called ghost trees. Meaning they keep their leaves throughout the winter and drop them in the spring.

THANK YOU MY GOOD MAN !!!! THAT WAS INFORMATIVE

Get video! Have you thought about writing a pocket size book on how to ID trees and plants?

Great pointers, Kevin! We find it challenging to tell the difference between red and black oak in winter...and sugar and red maple can be tough for us as well. Such an underrated skill, to be able to identify the world around you so well. It was fun to catch the odd glance of Tim, trying to stay out of sight with his top-secret outdoor lab testing going on...!

ironwood also maintains it's leaves in the winter, albeit dead

That was great thank you.

Thanks Kevin... great tutorial and knowledge shared

I am taking notes... Great info...

Very informative. I live in Barrie and the forest behind me is full of Balsam. You look along the ground at any given place and could probably count 15 Balsams that are anywhere from an inch to 2 feet tall. There are however large areas of mature Balsams that appear to be dead or dying, do you know what could cause this. Another tree here that is very rare in this area is Jack Pine. There are large areas I have found with Jack Pine in our forest that appear to be very old. I have never seen Jack Pine this large. The problem is that 80% of them are dead. With fire suppression, they will never spread their seeds either. I have been collecting all the cones off of the fallen Jack Pines in hopes of spreading the seeds back in the area but was wondering what could cause entire stands of Jack Pines to suddenly die. I could send pictures of the Jack Pines if you would like

Great dendrology class Kevin. Wish you had been my instructor when I went through the Forestry program back in the day.

awesome
