Norm has kindly given permission for this request.
 
Howard  Youth, who many of you may know, is in the final stages of pushing 
out a  book entitled, "Field Guide to the Natural World of Washington, DC"  
It  will be published by Johns Hopkins Press.  Howard is now in Ottawa with 
his  family; his wife works for the embassy.
 
 
Many  months ago I agreed to furnish all the photographs for this book at 
no cost  because "there was no budget for photography."  I am down to the 
last group  of tree and shrub images and am having a little difficulty locating 
appropriate  specimens.   
If you  know of specific locations of the  following trees/shrubs, I would 
appreciate being advised off  line. 
Ailanthus 
Chestnut  Oak 
Mulberry 
Black  Cherry 
Box  Elder 
Spicebush 
Arrowwood  and Mapleleaf Viburnums 
Japanese  honeysuckle 
To  be useful, such trees and shrubs need to be away from other plantings 
and away  from telephone and electric wires.  The middle of a playground 
would be an  ideal location!  The closer they are to Darnestown, the better, as 
I am not  even receiving expenses for this work.
 

 

 
Thanks  for your assistance.
