What kind of oak tree is this?

[Nrharris]

Here I was thinking the land around my dad's pond was almost all burr oak with a few black oaks and a few pin oaks. Today I noticed this tree that I always assumed was just another burr oak. Everything about the tree looks like all of the other burr oaks. Only difference is the acorns look like white oak acorns. So is this some sort of hybrid or a freak or just a white oak hiding among the burr oaks?

My app says it's a burr oak

That's what mine said too, but I've never seen burr oak acorns without the fuzzy cap. None of the acorns on this tree have the fuzzy cap and it has a lot of them.

Does not look like a burr Oak.

That’s hard to say, but the bark and acorns look different than my Bur Oaks?

Need closer pics of the bark. It could be something like a burr swamp hybrid too.

Burr oak in the farmyard is dropping tons of acorns. Wanna trade some?

Looks like a possible Bebbs oak.

white x bur cross

The acorns on the tree, if you just laid them out on a table, I think most people would say white oak (Quercus alba)

Seek can identify almost any tree, weed, or bush. Free too.

I will get an up close picture of the bark tomorrow. Either way I will probably collect some of the acorns to get some more going in the rest of the property.

Thank you - I will give it a try

Seek is my goto. PlantNet is another I use from time to time.

I got a couple pictures of the bark today. It's definitely not as rough as the regular burr oaks near it.

Definitely going to collect some of the acorns and plant them. It's a nice tree. Quick Google search says grow fairly quick for an oak with earlier acorn production. Thanks for the help.
