I was quickly able to identify these two trees because someone quickly made suggestions. Each of these trees also has more unique features. For the maple, It was clear that the leaves were in a trident shape with the middle lobe being the biggest, so I narrowed it down to an Acer Paxii. The Dogwood was also easy because of the white flowers, which means it was a Cornus Florida.

I walked further into the woods behind my house to find these plants and trees. This area is full of trees and wild plants, but it is not far from the main road. On the ground, there are many weeds, dandelions, and fallen leaves from the winter. The area i took these photos is flatter; however, the ground slopes downward into a creek shortly after these plants.
