    could be chestnut oak if you think it is oak
    chestnut usually are about done with flower/buds this time of year, might have some chestnuts/remnants left.

    Cool. Never saw one before. Trunk sure looked like oak but I had no idea oak leaves could be so different. Neighbors property, good half mile from home. He can keep it :)
    Thanks folks.

    There are are a large number a oak varieties. In CT, we see the usual white and red. Chestnut and chinkapin are the only other oaks I can readily identify, but I know there more than just these usual suspects
