How can you recognize a Sassafras tree?
546451
Four different leaf shapes can be found on one sassafras tree: three lobed, elliptical, two lobed/right side, and two lobed/left side. The deciduous leaves can grow up to six inches by four inches, and the tree itself may grow up to about 30 feet on Assateague, and even up to 60 feet elsewhere. In the spring, small yellowish green flowers develop with the leaves; oval-shaped, blue fruits of less than half an inch follow.

go for walks in the park -- since each tree is a different color

The Wollemi Pine:\n\nA very rare discovery ‘Dinosaur tree’ or ‘living fossil’, the Wollemi Pine is certainly one of the greatest botanical discoveries of our time.\n\nIn September 1994 David Noble, an officer with the NSW National Parks & Wildlife Service, discovered some trees he didn’t quite recognise. In a deep, narrow canyon of the rugged Wollemi National Park, he discovered what we now call Wollemia nobilis or the Wollemi Pine.\n\nThe dramatic discovery of an evolutionary line thought to be long extinct is even more remarkable with these tall and striking trees growing only 150 km from Sydney, the largest city in Australia. They were found in the extremely rugged Wollemi National Park, a largely undisturbed wilderness area.\n\nIt’s rare, it’s endangered, it’s strange looking, and at first we didn’t know all that much about it. Now we know a lot more — click on a topic of interest at the left to find out more. \n\nThe worldwide demand for this plant has been enormous. Research into the horticultural development of the Wollemi Pine is being conducted at Mount Annan Botanic Garden.\n\nJust how old is a Wollemi Pine?\n\nTo determine the age of the Wollemi Pine trees, a scientific team cut cross-sections from one of the fallen trunks (a large mature, 35–40 metre trunk) at the original site in Wollemi National Park, and sent them to the Australian National University Forestry Department for analysis.\n\nOne of the most intriguing things that can’t be determined, due to coppicing (the unusual branching habit which leads to old Wollemi Pines having many separate trunks — see appearance) is how old the original tree was before this particular trunk was produced. It may have been hundreds, or perhaps thousands of years since it was a seedling.\n\nBy counting the growth rings from cross-sections of the trunk and combining this with carbon dating, the best estimate for this sample trunk is about 350 years old — research is being conducted on determining its age. This means that this trunk started growing around 1650!

You could check Wikipedia, the free, online encyclopedia under:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecaceae\n\nor, go to Google Images, http://images.google.com/\ntype in "Arecaceae" and cruise through the images until you see one that looks like yours.\n\nHope this helps!

Looks like a female golden crowned kinglet to me.  Scientific name is Regulus satrapa.

There's a forester's tool called a clinometer. Look it up online and get one, or you can go to the local high school and see if the ag department has one there you can borrow. They are very accurate. I use them in foresty competitions with the FFA.

My guess would be flowers. \nThe Crimson waratah is a succulent (thick fluid-filled leaves) that looks a bit like a cabbage disguised as a cactus with a big reddish-pink flower in the middle. It's the state emblem of New South Wales, Australia. \nThe other two I don't know.

go to yahoo search, type in sarsaparilla, click images (above the search bar), click search.\nSee if any of the pics look like the plant you are describing.\nIt almost sounds like a ginko biloba tree to me.
