As we were playing a family baseball game, my son threw me a pitch and I blasted it. The ball end up goin into a large tree. I recognized the decidous tree as a mesquite. Its twigs have a zig-zag form. Also, the mesquite bean pods can be dried and ground into flour, which can add a nutty taste to bread. The leaves can be used in eye drops too. Flowers on this tree provide nectar for bees to produce mesquite honey.
