Silhouettes of trees Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Hydey the Gardener, or anyone: know any sites with pictures of silhouettes of naked leaf trees in winter? The idea would be to learn to recognize naked leaf trees also in winter.

Seems like a pretty tough task. Are you primarily interested in trees from northern Europe? Why are you excluding other means of tree identification such as bark and leaf type?

True. Bark and leaves are the primary source of identification.

I mean deciduous trees like birch, oak, you name it. In winter there are no leaves, and from a distance you can’t discern the details of bark. Besides, I find it hard to identify a tree by its bark, except a birch and an aspen. Pictures of silhouettes, or growth forms, would be excellent.

I’ve done some serious searching in (prep? on? with? by? through? with the means of?) Google. Search terms like identifying naked trees in winter bring back lots of excellent matches – no pics in any of them!

Thanks anyway for your interest.

Don't give up that easily.

I have all the silhouettes of indigenous trees of BC. Unfortunately they are mostly conifers. But it is not on a website, but in a reference handbook.

My guess is that the info you are looking for is on the net as well as the library. Keep refining your search terms and I'll bet you can find it. But even with the silhouettes, you won't find identification an easy task.

Glad to see that your avatar's weird hair colour problem has been fixed Allie.

Wilderness, are these 'wilderness' trees? Any pruning will make your task even harder.

My avatar has changed, RedFred. Previously the little girl with the green hair was Lum the Alien Princess. Now it's May, my cousin in Hangzhou.

She's really sweet and her English is endearingly quirky. As is the rest of her.
