White Oak in Intermitant Stream

Photo taken 3-Nov-07


This White oak is in the intermittent stream. You don't usually find White oak in streams. This intermittent stream must not carry water for long.

White oak (Quercus alba) will become the dominate tree in the forest. It probably is called white oak because of the bark. The bark isn't white, but compared to the other barks in the forests it seems whiter.
