Shagbark hickory
Carya ovata
Shagbark hickory is one of my favorite trees. The bark is distinctive and the tree grows up to 100 feet tall.
Here are 3 Shagbark hickory trees with their distinctive bark. I saw these on the horse trail at Watkins Mill State park. Shagbark hickory is prevalent in the woods around here.
Bats use the loose bark as shelter.
