It looks like oak . Quercus nigra leaves look like some of the above.

Here is a link that might be useful: Quercus nigra

there are a couple tree ID experts in the tree forum ...

who i have never seen here ..

they will also need to know age .. as babes may not show true leaves ....

and if you post there.. and have a pic of the trunk.. sometimes bark helps ...

usually you need photos of the buds, the leaves, and the fruit ( acorns) in order to positively ID an oak. Many oak species hybridize as well.

Not sure of the variety, but definitely an oak tree. I live in Montgomery, Alabama. I have 4 mature trees with the same type of leaves on them, each about 30 to 40 feet tall, along the front border of my house. They keep the yard in nearly constant shade, which keeps the house cool and lowers my air conditioning bill. I also have a cedar tree, fig tree, poplar tree, 3 Judas trees, and four pecan trees all shading my property. The only downfall to so many mature trees and constant shade- I have weeds instead of grass in the front yard and part of the back yard. At least it's fertile soil. I'm going to plant clover next spring because it does well in the shade and has cute little flowers. All the grass I tried to plant either got eaten by birds and squirrels or died because of the lack of direct sunlight.

Looks like water oak. Does it remain evergreen well into December, early January?
