Common Name: American sycamore
Scientific Name: Platanus occidentalis
Category: Old tree
Comments: Though this tree isn't exceptionally large or old, it is quite large & tall. It's stately and apparently healthy despite having a paved right of way next to it. It's probably the tallest tree in the hollow here (Whippoorwill hollow). I would estimate the height as over 100 feet. Age unknown. Quite simply a beautiful tree.
Best time to photograph: Summer; morning
