Proper Bird Watching Technique



Just joking. From here I saw 3 Brown Creepers (Certhia americana) I liked this spot a dominate Pignut hickory surrounded by Eastern Red ceader.

I measured the Pignut hickory (Carya glabra).
Circumference 6' 3" or 75 inches
Height 75'
Crown 51.5 feet
Total points 178 (Ht in feet + circuference in inches + crown diameter/4)

Here is what I saw looking up.



Later I was hiking along the lake edge and I came across this Bur oak also called overcup oak(Quercus lyrata).
Circumference 13' 3" 159"
53' high
76 feet crown diameter
Total points 231
