    Tree ID, please.
    Hope there is enough to go on here.
    The leaves were a long way up!

    A leaf would have helped. I have no clue.

    The branches look like an African sumac, Rhus lancea that I photographed a few days back in Las Vegas.

    Unfortunately, the leaves don't!

    Ditto to V V on an elm.

    I'll put it on hold for the moment until I can ascertain as to which Elm it is by getting some photos of its leaves.
    Thank you all for your expertise.

    If possible, clip a branch and take some up close shots of twigs, buds, and leaf morphology. Elms are chameleonic...and excel at mimicry.

    Thank you, ViburnumValley!
