Red oak bark

This mature red oak (Quercus rubra) shows a good example of the shiny vertical strips of bark that is typical of red oak.  Notice it's one of the trees at Clegg Garden with a label to identify it.  In the background to the west is the lookout point over Wildcat Creek.  Photo taken February 4, 2015.
