I Never Expected To See This Oak


Imagine spending over a decade with the same group of friends, only to discover a stranger had been among you the entire time.

This recently happened to me, but it didn’t involve humans.

It involved oaks.

For more than a decade, I’d been visiting the same patch of woods near my home. I thought I knew all the trees there, but I guess I was wrong.

One day, I came across an oak I’d never noticed before. It didn’t look like the other oaks, and it left me with many more questions than answers.

Of course, I filmed the experience to show you this unusual tree.

Do you have any idea what kind of oak this is?
