Anyone know what kind of tree this is? It's really pretty with its light green leaves. Thank you for any information!

An elm, probably Ulmus parvifolia.

Ah - would t'wer American Beech or American Hornbeam had such sweet succor as to sprout conveniently in such a situation...

Verily, must agree with Resin - t'is naught but an evil Elm (Ulmus sp.) that hast beset ye and groweth so vigourously and haughtily, and beguiled ye with its wanton charms.
