Trees of Ontario

Items that will be found on this page:

• Pictures of trees
• Information of trees
• Identification of trees
• Evrironmental Technology current information site

I have some pictures now, but I'm waiting for a new digital camera to get better resolution. I can get your ideas as soon as I organize the page with the pictures. I want you to use this webpage. I hope it is a worthwhile idea. I enjoy doing this and I have time to spend on it.

Thank you,
