![Many people think that winter is an incredibly challenging time to identify trees.
Flowers are absent. Fruits are scarce. Leaves are scattered.
With fewer clues available, how is it possible to positively identify trees?
The answer is simple. Learn what's unique to the winter season.
Each season offers clues, and winter is no exception. Bark and twigs are two obvious clues that can help us identify trees during the winter season, but another clue — one that is often overlooked — can significantly improve our tree identification skills.
In a brand new video, I discuss a clue that's only available during the coldest months of the year. When you look for it, you'll be able to identify more trees. (Video link in profile.)
