How can I tell what type of tree a branch is?

You can identify the type of tree by looking at its leaves, bark, and branches. If it has broad, smooth, light-colored bark, it’s probably an oak tree. If it has darker, rough bark with deep ridges, it’s likely a pine or fir tree. The shape of the branches will also give you clues about the species of tree. For example, if the branches are long and thin, it could be a maple tree.
