Subject: [Leica] IMG: Young Black Oak

I'm on the fence about trying to save this young Black Oak, which obviously 
grew from an acorn off a tree we lost a couple of years ago.  The Fall color 
is the best of the oaks in our area.  The problem is that insects or 
squirrels have damaged the bark on the lower two feet of the trunk.  Does 
anyone know of a way to aid this area in healing?  I have heard that insects 
will do it in, once this type of damage occurs.

I don't often do tree-tops, but this one is reachable. ;-)
