[Revisited] Salix mataudana IDed this time by emerging catkins
Corkscrew Willow
Cleveland Pear
[Revisited] Cultivar of Pyrus calleryana IDed by small white flowers in clusters and tall height (over 20ft). Also, I IDed this tree as a callery pear in the winter using the buds, which made things much easier.

Common Serviceberry (?)
Amelanchier arborea IDed by bark and buds with emerging white flowers
