A few times during the past month I've noticed young persons sitting at the base of the tree on the corner at McDermoth School -- the tree which I have decided to call the Scholar Tree. These scholars are often seen with a water bottle and book bag settled there for a relaxed reading session.
My task will be to capture interesting photos of the tree, with or without its scholarly attendants.
geo:46.97684,-123.82293Here are the three best images. I have several others that I may include after I tinker a bit.
My best guess regarding what kind of tree this is would be a Wych Elm, based on the matches I found at identify.plantnet.org. This is not its native habitat, but they have been cultivated in various parts of North America.
