Huge Tree at Eno Marsh Preserve

I stumbled upon this massive tree at our Eno Marsh preserve in Westport. It may be a Tulip tree - hard to tell as the leaves were still emerging to true shape. A preserve map/location is on our website. Click Maps/Westport/Eno Marsh Preserve for directions. The entrance is at the train station parking lot off Saugatuck Ave. Not a pretty entrance, but if you hike in, half way through on left is this great tree. Check out the video I took below. It is worth the short hike in! I am taking my kids to see this tree.
