Congrats to Keith :D

I was informed a few days ago by a good friend and colleague (who chose not to reveal themselves on the blog!) that it was quite probably a Sumac Tree (female variant) also known as the Staghorn Sumac :)

Otherwise known as Rhus Typhina (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhus_typhina).
