    Thanks for your reply (about the twigs). Unfortunately the tree was pulled down with heavy snow so there is just the stump left - here is a picture of the bark. Cheers Shaun

    Answer

    Dear Shaun, that's too bad, I was looking forward to seeing more of this tree. Given the Vinca minor in the background, is it possible this tree is cultivated at the edge of a yard? If so, it could explain why I don't recognize it. I don't know what part of southern ME you are in, but perhaps we could arrange a visit sometime when I am coming through the area. Happy to connect if that would be of help (and if possible). My email is ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org. Best wishes.
