Question
My daughter has a science project where she needs to identify trees by their leaves. We need pictures of leaves that are native to trees in Wisconsin. Could you please suggest a web site that would show close up pictures of leaves that she could use to identify the leaves. Thank you very much for any information you could give me.

Answer
Here is a web link to Tree Id in Wisconsin from the Wisconsin Center for Environmental Education and one from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources both are excellent sources.  I like the first one the best. It uses real pictures instead of drawings and then gives the tree ID cards for more pictures to aid in the ID. Great Science project.
