Biodiversity

I took pictures of five different types of trees on my plot and identified them by their leaves . To help me identify my leafs and what tree they came from, I used the source called: "Identify By Leaf": http://lib.oh.us/tree/leaf/leaf%20pages/017%20simple%20leaves/simple.html

My first leaf is from a Sugar Maple (Acer saccharum)
