Information

On the lonely edge of a desolate cornfield, a Black Oak provides a bit of cover ans shade for the squirrels and crows common here.It is hard to miss the glossy sheen of its leaves against the sun, presumably planted as a windbreak for what is now a wasteland. Oh, well, take a water break in the shade.
