Can anyone identify this tree? Cheesequake's hardwood forest is known for containing Oak, Maple, Birch, and Gum trees. I'd love to know what species this is, but clearly no leaves to go by in winter.
"Cheesequake State Park is a 1,610-acre (2.52 mi2) state park located in Old Bridge, Middlesex County, New Jersey, in the United States.
The New Jersey Legislature allocated $100,000 in 1937 to purchase property for the park. The state first acquired a 250-acre (100 ha) tract of farmland and a Civil War-era mansion from the Favier brothers in January 1938. Additional lands were acquired over the next two years, and the Civil Conservation Corps, part of the Works Progress Administration, helped develop the property. The park was opened in June 1940. It is operated and maintained by the New Jersey Division of Parks and Forestry and is part of the New Jersey Coastal Heritage Trail Route.
The name Cheesequake has been variously described as deriving from the Lenape words Cheseh-oh-ke ("upland"), Chichequaas ("upland village"), or Chiskhakink ("at the land that has been cleared").
The park's lowlands consist of freshwater and saltwater marsh and a tidal estuary near the mouth of Cheesequake Creek on the Raritan Bay. It also includes hills of Northeastern hardwood forest, open fields, and a white cedar swamp. It includes a small parcel of Atlantic coastal pine barrens, consisting of pine forest in sandy soil, an isolated section of the much larger New Jersey Pine Barrens. It also includes the 6-acre (24,000 m2) Hooks Creek Lake, a freshwater lake where recreational fishing features trout, largemouth bass, catfish, and sunfish. Crabbing is also available at the park.
The park includes an interpretive center and five marked trails for both hiking and mountain biking that run throughout the wooded hills and across long wooden bridges across marshland. The park has designated camping areas available by reservation. Swimming and boating are summertime activities, while sledding, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing are available in wintertime.
The Garden State Parkway runs through the park near exit 120 but offers no direct access. A road runs underneath the parkway to connect the northern and southern sides of the park. Parts of the park, including a picnic area, are visible from the parkway. Aberdeen-Matawan station (New Jersey Transit) is located about two miles east of the park." (Wikipedia)

Original Fairies Wear Boots ;o) but for the Renaissance we go back to the old English spelling Faeries vs the new day Disney Fairies. From the Black Sabbath album the song Fairies Wear Boots.

Hawthorn tree
Portal to Faerie realm
April 29 2010
'Spirits and faeries had their meeting place under the hawthorn tree.'
from: Flower Power by Anne Mcintyre. A Henry Holt reference book.
I was thrilled to find this quote, as I thought of faeries when I was near this lovely tree.
I used the berries in a tea I made up for Mark when he suffered from high blood pressure a few years ago.

I suppose if I were a water faerie, I might like to call this home. With rooms with a view and reading lights in every nook, it is interesting, pleasing to the eye and remarkably odd, all at the same time. If it isn't enough to just gaze at for a while, you might be interested to know that it opens like it was some labyrinthine sea creature recently discovered near the Galapagos. This is the stunning creation of my Daughter Jacqueline Richard. It has been said, if you build it they will come. I wonder....
Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,
For I would ride with you upon the wind,
Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,
And dance upon the mountains like a flame.
~William Butler Yeats, "The Land of Heart's Desire," 1894
these tiny little shrooms were on a old fallen tree, that has laid on the hillside for more than 25 yrs... covered in mosses and tiny fungus.
My friend Matthew has a beautiful moss / lichen shot this week too!
please do have a look :)

Sometimes I’m such a Faerie!
But it is in our nature to fly high
Dance in the glow of silliness
Dizzy and dithering as a bumbling Boo! Bee
This was my favourite of Jan’s photo shoot.
Look at those eyes, awwww…
Burning brightest Amber…
Like toffee apples…
Making that hard crunch in your mind…
That fermented anticipation of your lips coaxed saliva…
And that, that….. ummm! as the bite, breaks, that hard glazed skin…
Lost in the rush of juices…sweet…sweet…surrender!!!
