deciduous woodland
Seasonally bare trees
A deciduous woodland is a forest dominated by trees that shed their leaves seasonally, typically in autumn.
These woodlands are characterized by species like oak, maple, and beech, and undergo dramatic seasonal changes—bare branches in winter, budding in spring, full canopy in summer, brilliant color in fall.
