Hi, just trying to ID a few trees in my yard. Just wonder if this is a blackjack oak tree.

Thanks for help on the tree. Here is a picture of the bark. My brother kept saying this was a Burr Oak but I didn't think so. Could it possibly be a Post Oak? Thanks again, James in Crossville, TN.

Not a post oak, it is a blackjack oak. There are probably post oaks nearby, however
