I sometimes have my own private tree tour. My favorite trees are oaks and trees with fall colors.
From Lake Worth area to Benbrook to Glen Rose are some of the coolest looking live oaks with big branches.One of my favorite is one in Lake Worth that overlooks the lake. That tree maybe the tallest live oak in DFW.It surprised my eyes. I am guessing it's 75-80 ft tall with a wingspan of 100 ft. And it shades the entire house.
Shumard oaks in Fort Worth are huge.
Post oaks are great in the country. In Benbrook to Fort Worth Westover Hills, are some of the largest bur oaks in Texas.
In fact, I finally found the Memorial Oak (Bur oak), of Benbrook in the Pecan Valley Park, one the largest bur oaks. Just right behind the tree was a group of wild turkeys.
Fall colors are also very nice this autumn.
I encourage you to just go out there and just look.
