Black Tupelo

Black Tupelo? (Nyssa sylvatica)
3/7/2012
I've had this post developing for awhile. Ive been trying to ID this tree through the use of the resources off the internet but I have not had the luck of actually solving the puzzle.
so today, 3/20/2012, I went to the library to finally figure this out.
I found a field guide entitled: The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Trees Eastern Region
Possibilities:
Black Tupelo (620)
Nyssa sylvatica
Leaves and berries match description and pictures.
