You're welcome and you're doing a great job. That's the best thing about Project Noah ... we learn things all the time and we help each other out when we can. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your spottings!

Hi, StevenBercik. Really great that you included photos of the flowers, leaves, trunk and general shape of the tree ... well done. One thing, with those pointy petals and big red berries, I think this is a Kousa dogwood, Cornus kousa. And welcome!
